Living Well with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder

The REPAIR Process: Living Well with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder is a true self-told account of a lived experience with PMDD. It helps readers to reclaim a life well lived despite a condition that can make that very thing seem impossible.
The REPAIR Process: Living Well with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder is a compassionate, practical guide for anyone navigating the intense, cyclical challenges of PMDD. Grounded in lived experience, it offers a clear six-step framework—Recognise, Evaluate, Prepare, Accept, Imagine, Restore—that helps readers understand their symptoms, build language for what’s happening in their body, and create supportive rhythms that make life feel possible again. More than a book, it’s a map for reclaiming stability, self‑trust, and hope in the midst of a condition that can feel overwhelming and invisible.
