Understanding PMDD
PMDD is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) characterized by intense emotional and physical symptoms. Here are some key aspects of PMDD:
Emotional Symptoms: Severe mood swings, emotional disturbance, irritability, depression, and anxiety, and sometimes suicidal ideation that occur in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle.
Physical Symptoms: Fatigue, bloating, breast tenderness, and headaches.
Impact on Daily Life: These symptoms can significantly impair daily functioning, affecting relationships, work, and overall quality of life.
The Link Between Trauma, the Nervous System, and PMDD
Understanding the connection between trauma, the nervous system, and PMDD is essential for effective management and support:
Trauma Impact: Trauma, particularly unresolved or chronic trauma, can exacerbate PMDD symptoms by creating heightened sensitivity to stress and emotional triggers.
Nervous System Dysregulation: Trauma can lead to a dysregulated nervous system, causing heightened states of anxiety, stress, and emotional reactivity, which can worsen PMDD symptoms.
Holistic Healing: Addressing trauma and working to regulate the nervous system can significantly reduce PMDD symptoms and improve overall well-being.
The Role of PMDD Coaching
PMDD coaching is a transformative approach that provides support and strategies to manage and alleviate symptoms. Here’s how PMDD coaching can help:
