Are situationships causing more chaos in your life than you realize? Today, we unpack the subtle yet profound impact these undefined relationships can have on those suffering from PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder). Drawing from personal tales and client stories, we emphasize the necessity of intentional dating and clear communication of relationship goals. Discover how aligning intentions and setting solid boundaries can shield your mental and emotional well-being from the added turmoil situationships often bring.

For those juggling co-parenting and dating in their late 20s and early 30s, situationships can be particularly challenging. We'll explore how custody schedules might limit your life choices and affect partner availability and support. Through personal experiences, we uncover the signs of being stuck in a situationship—where labels and commitments are blurry—and provide actionable tools to manage these uncertain dynamics. We aim to help you navigate these relationships without letting them worsen your PMDD symptoms.

Managing PMDD within the transient nature of situationships can be incredibly tough. We discuss the importance of recognizing and vocalizing your needs, even if it means confronting the fear of scaring your partner away. Learn how to evaluate whether a relationship is fulfilling or merely a source of added stress. We'll also delve into how to resist the temptation of reverting to past relationships or casual flings that don't align with your long-term goals. This episode encourages you to seek meaningful connections that truly support your emotional and mental health, fostering a path towards better, more fulfilling relationships.
