Hello everyone, my name is Arina! I’m from South Pasadena, CA but recently moved to New Hampshire to start medical school. Similarly to what Jes said, I’m excited to be a part of this community because experiencing PMDD alone can be very lonely.
I’m looking to get these 3 things from the community:
- Learning how to cope with PMDD in the midst of the business of life when we may not always have the luxury to drop everything to rest & care for ourselves.
- Learning to fully accept and embrace my emotions without shame or guilt.
- Feeling a sense of community, support, and validation listening to other people’s PMDD experiences.
For fun, I like to do these 3 things:
- Take walks
- Watch movies
- Boulder
