> PolarbearHello Polarbear,
I think I have SAD since I was a child.
I got Bulimia and Depression when I was 16 years old. I spent 7 years doing a treatment for my eating disorder and got rid of it back in 2000. But Depression and Social Anxiety didn't go away.I recall having a bad PMS since I was a teen but it got really bad four years ago (I'm 35) Coincidentally I went through a lot of stress at that time. I don't have kids.
I keep a symptoms diary. A low level of symptoms appears all month, with an increase in the severity of symptoms premenstrually, but with no consistent symptom-free interval. It doesn't get worse at different times of the year.Thank you so much for all the responses and questions!!
