I Blame the Hormones: Living with Reproductive Depression- Caroline Church

Book Description: Imagine being so sensitive to your body’s pre-menstrual hormones that two weeks out of every four are a living nightmare. Imagine becoming so ill that you fear that you’ll struggle to bond with your children. Imagine knowing that something is wrong but not getting any credible diagnoses. And then imagine the relief of finally finding a doctor who says ‘I believe you’, who diagnoses reproductive depression and who says they can help you. This is the powerful experience of Caroline Church, who spent over twenty years of her life trying to live with the nightmare that came once a month. But she’s not alone. It’s the story of millions of others who ride the same menstrual rollercoaster. Maybe it’s your story too? In the first section of I Blame the Hormones, Caroline describes her own experiences with vivid and uncompromising honesty. In the second newly expanded half of the book, Caroline explains what you can do if you’re also trapped in a monthly hormonal nightmare. She describes the different syndromes associated with menstrual problems and how to get the help you need, not only from the medical profession but also by learning how to help yourself.
