Have you ever felt like PMDD has thrown your sense of self into chaos? It's not uncommon, especially when PMDD disrupts our lives and prevents us from being the person we once knew. PMDD can alter the course of our lives–sometimes dramatically–and it can make us feel unrecognizable to ourselves.
I recently came across some valuable insights from mindfulness teachers Shamash Alidina and David Treleaven, that resonated with me in a BIG way. So, in this episode, I reflect on some of their teachings on identity, ego, and values, and how they can apply to the identity crisis we can experience in a life with PMDD.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How reframing your identity in terms of underlying values, can give you a broader guide for your life, allowing you to honor your identity and values, even during PMDD's toughest moments.
- How mindfulness can help you separate yourself from your struggles with PMDD.
- How ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Training) can help you expand your sense of self, so that you don’t feel like you’ve lost yourself, or become unrecognizable, when PMDD throws you a curveball.
I’ll also teach you an exercise for turning your sense of identity around, so that you can move from pinning your identity to what you do (which might be limited by PMDD) and instead shape your identity around the values that are important to you and what you want your life to look like.
When I did this exercise I found more openness and spaciousness in my life and discovered that I am still me, at the core, no matter my capacity for a specific job or activity. Even on the toughest PMDD days, I'm still me.
And you are still you!
