It's A Lot with Abbie Chatfield

Emma Hardy lives with PMDD, and spent years of her life trying to work out what actions and feelings were 'her', and what was her PMDD. Her new memoir, Periodic Bitch, intertwines her exploration of her own psyche with cultural depictions and (mis)understandings of monsters, menstruation, and monstrous women. Emma and Abbie discuss the frustrating cycles of medical misogyny, identity and illness, female rage and so much more. A must-listen for people with PMDD, and those that love and support them.
