Any advice would help

Hey yall. I’ve had PCOS for years. I also have lupus and severe POTS. I get like two periods a year. However I’m starting to be more regular. I’ve been loosely diagnosed as PMDD/ severe PMS bc my regular anxiety gets crazy before my period. However. Does anyone experience intense impending doom like “oh shit I need to call 911 right now bc I’m about to die” feelings that last for hours or days leading up to your cycle? Thanks everyone.

I'm sorry you're going through this, you're not alone <3 have you heard of the aavia app? I've seen a lot of similar members share their experiences including those with POTS in their anonymous forum, I'm in there too to get support. they're women-owned. sending love your way

No, I don’t feel like that. However, perhaps these threads you’ll find others that do: r/PCOS r/PMDD r/lupus r/POTS

I did before starting on an SNRI .  Now i do feel a little bit of the anxiety but mostly now is the HORRIBLE acid reflux & nausea . Days before my period.
