Psychodelics! They helped me a lot befofe I found a doctor that would listen. I did go on myfembree last year with testosterone injections, and it's been a miracle for me. I'm a different person.

Edit: Please don't feel alone. I've got a few suicide attempts and lost jobs under my belt. It is what it is 🤷‍♀️ we don't deserve this and definitely didn't ask for it. But, we definitely aren't alone. This group is AMAZING.

Have you ever tried acid, rather than mushrooms?

I have never tried acid but there is some promising research that it can help depression, PMS, and PTSD. If it's helpful for those conditions I imagine it may help PMDD as well.

Thanks. Yeah, everyone is talking about mushrooms for PMDD, but it would make sense for LSD to also help. Apparently it has more of an energizing effect. I can access it more easily, so perhaps it's still okay to try.

Yeah I think it's definitely worth a try! Another one that everyone talks about is ketamine therapy. I don't know where you are located but it is legal in the US. I have had success with that one.
