PMDD and other hormonal disorders can be both frightening and exhausting for those who directly experience the symptoms and also for friends and family who a

re caught in the cross-fire. Often people do not understand the effects or they minimise them, which leaves women and affected others feeling isolated and socially excluded. PMDD is a brain/biochemistry problem that results in mood and behavioural distress. Oestrogen and Progesterone levels naturally fluctuate influencing the brains serotonin levels, with these changes mood regulation is disrupted. This is not the fault of the women, it is a physiological problem whereby the brains delicate biochemistry becomes unbalanced month after month after month. GYLB supports women stuck in this never-ending cycle of PMDD and other hormonal conditions. We also support those people around them that may be affected by these behavioural, emotional and psychological extremes. We are now extending our programme to people with mental health issues, both male and female and reach people across Cornwall, UK through telephone, Zoom meetings and FaceTime.
