Do you ever feel like selfishness is creeping into your PMDD relationships? It's a tough realization, but you're not alone. In this candid conversation, I share my personal experiences and struggles with selfishness in my own relationship, and how it's affected both me as someone with PMDD and my partner. You'll learn how Maslow's hierarchy of needs can help shed light on why this issue can lead to problems in relationships and how to begin addressing it.

Unintentional selfishness can be tricky to recognize, but it's essential to understand its impact on your relationship. Through real-life examples from my journey, we'll discuss the importance of meeting your PMDD partner's basic needs, such as food, water, and shelter. You'll discover how these seemingly small acts can provide comfort, security, and a better balance in your relationship. Furthermore, we'll delve into the potential dangers of one partner constantly putting their needs first and how it can breed resentment and bitterness.

If you're ready to navigate the complexities of PMDD rage and intrusive thoughts in your relationship, you won't want to miss our discussion on the Breakup Proof Academy. With weekly trainings, workbooks, and access to a private Facebook group, you'll gain valuable tools and support to help create a more stable and understanding environment for you and your partner. So, let's dive in and tackle the challenges of selfishness in PMDD relationships together.
