Hey, /fit/, I've never been here before, but I need halp.
Google isn't helping, and I don't really know where to go (aside from the doctor on Tuesday). I'm almost entirely certain now that I have PMDD, but I'm not sure how to go about talking to a doctor. I ended up going to a mental ward after Lexapro made me want to cut my arms open. (Intrusive thoughts, etc.) They seemed to insist that I need -more- of these antidepressants to make me get "better", but I lose respect for them when they pretty much acknowledge that the next pill will probably do the same thing, if not make it doubly worse. It just felt like I was stuck in that movie One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest.

Anyway, I'm certain it isn't mental now because no pills have worked and they're all relatively similar in some way. I'm also convinced that my moods fluctuate consistently with my hormone levels on a cyclical basis.
To the point, does anyone else here have/or has experienced PMDD or depression, maybe even the psychotic side effects from antidepressants? Did you go to the doctor only for them to give you another fucking antidepressant that doesn't work?
