Are you ready to untangle the intricacies of the caregiver role in PMDD relationships? This episode promises to deliver insightful discussions and practical tools to aid you in this journey. Drawing from the pages of my recently published PMDD dissertation, we explore the complexities that surface in relationships where one partner is also a caregiver. This episode is perfect for you if you've ever felt overwhelmed by your role as a caregiver, or if you're seeking to understand the challenges it entails.

Navigating the dual responsibilities of caring for a PMDD partner while also attending to personal needs can be a tricky balancing act. We share hard-earned insights on managing a military career and a relationship simultaneously, the significance of nurturing your relationship, and the struggles that come with setting aside personal emotional and physical needs. The episode also tackles the importance of self-awareness in a PMDD relationship and the challenges of managing personal symptoms while attending to a partner's disorder. 

This episode doesn't just skim the surface; we delve into the harsh realities of caregiving in PMDD relationships and the sacrifices it demands. We discuss the feeling of being confined in activities and vacations due to a partner's health scare, the commitment required in a PMDD relationship, and how to maintain independence amidst these challenges. By the end of this episode, you'll have gained valuable insights into the caregiver role and hopefully, you'll discover some tools to help you navigate your own PMDD relationship better.
