> Jules, You are right to start looking for answers now. First you may need to find a Doc that specializes in these things. The SSRI's do have some side effects and may rob you of your desire for sex. There are a ton of drugs that are being tried. You just have to research them all. Then you need to watch closely to see if you are pregnant so you can stop quickly. Some drugs must be phased out and not abruptly withdrawn. These symptoms will keep coming back and get worse as you reach menopause. The problem is that each woman reacts differently because of body chemistry. You are right that diet and exercise are not enough. Herbal remedies have very little affect in severe cases. Research carefully and find a Doc who is sympathetic and knows about PMDD. There are a few I hear. I go through this agony with the woman I love. She is older and has suffered like you since the onset of puberty. You at least are looking for help. That is a huge step in the right direction. You obviously have a loving husband who is willing to ride out the storms with you. Getting this straightened out will help you both. I'm about to lose it and we are not even married. I hope you find what you need and if it works then let me know. I keep trying to get her to get help but so far she resists. Doug
