Ive been tracking my moods and the week before my period is always so bad. My BPD really ramps up and I can't function at all. I split on everyone so much harder than usual. I feel so angry and I snap at everyone. I can't do any chores or even shower/feed myself properly sometimes. I feel suicidal and don't want to leave my bed. Obviously I haven't been able to hold a job for very long with being like this for a week out of every month. My last two jobs only lasted 6 months each and I've been unemployed for a year. It's embarrassing. Really embarrassing.

I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 on top of BPD... but since it's so closely related to my period and so consistent it doesn't feel like bipolar 2... maybe PMDD? Or is this just what a period feels like for people who have BPD? 

My problem is I don't know what kind of doctor to see about this. My OBGYN? A psychiatrist? A general doctor? An endocrinologist to test my hormones? I just want to be able to function every week out of the month. Which realistically doesn't feel like it's ever going to happen for me.
