History made.

We are beyond proud to announce that Vicky Pattison is now an official Patron of The PMDD Project: the first ever PMDD Patron in the UK.

We shared this moment live at our summit, with over 3,000 of you registered (!!!). A milestone not just for us, but for everyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or dismissed.

PMDD is no longer being ignored. It’s being recognised, spoken about, and taken seriously… Exactly as it should be.

And this is only the beginning. We have so much planned with Vicky, and we cannot wait to bring you along for what’s next.

Summit recordings and links coming soon. 🤍 by @thepmddproject

💗 PMDD doesn’t just affect the person experiencing it. It can affect the people who love them, too.

Following the findings from our loved one’s research study - and the success of our first workshops for loved ones - we’re launching a trial run of dedicated support groups for partners, spouses, parents, family members and friends.

A space to connect with others, share experiences and feel understood. Because you deserve support, too. 💗

📍 Online & in-person (Liverpool) 📅 Starting November 2026

Want to take part? Sign up via link in bio and we’ll be in touch.

We’re also looking for two volunteers to help deliver the project. If you’re interested, please email kimberley@thepmddproject.org 💗

We’re always soooo lucky to receive such wonderful support from our community and are always BLOWN AWAY by the fundraisers that take place throughout the country (and beyond!). So it’s about bloody time we start giving our supporters a shout-out.

This past month has been a very busy month for some of our supporters so a special thanks to these lovely people who have taken part in the Three Peaks Challenge or Vitality 10k and, between them, raised thousands of pounds for The PMDD Project.

If you’re taking part in a fundraiser, or would like to, please do reach out! We are always grateful and couldn’t exist without you lovely lot.

ADHD Awareness Month 🧡

There’s growing research exploring the connection between ADHD and PMDD and how hormonal changes throughout the cycle may affect ADHD symptoms.

For some people, the overlap can mean more overwhelm, emotional sensitivity, brain fog, impulsivity and difficulty focusing.

We’re sharing what the research tells us, what the overlap can look like, and some ways to make those harder days a little more manageable. 🧡

We know that stories of sexual violence can feel deeply upsetting, particularly for anyone who has experienced sexual assault, harassment, coercion or any form of abuse themselves.

I’m so excited to share that The PMDD Project will be joining us at Em Fest 🎫

For This is Me’s third birthday in Manchester, it was really important to me that we made space for charities doing brilliant work and The PMDD Project is exactly that.

The PMDD Project will be coming along, alongside their ambassador Dr Milli who is an absolutely brilliant voice in this space 🙌

PMDD stands for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, a cyclical, hormone-based mood disorder that affects an estimated 5% of people with ovaries.

Here’s why it’s important to support their mission:
💜 824,000 people in the UK have PMDD
💜 593,000 will experience suicidal ideation
💜 412,000 will self-harm
💜 275,000 will attempt suicide

The PMDD Project is the first UK charity dedicated to supporting people with PMDD.

If you’d love to come along and hear more, you can get your Em Fest ticket via the link in my bio.

If any of this affects you, @thepmddproject has support resources that can help.

This is Me
