It's best to excessive but finding the motivation is hard. Try doing what you love. I like yoga rowing and walking

It is hard for me to get motivated to exercise on a regular day, but when my PMDD symptoms are at their height - forget it. I have a hard time even getting dressed for the day let alone leaving the house and then going to exercise.

Definitely recommend exercise. Swimming helps me it's relaxing and steady on my off days and it gives me a rush of dopamine afterwards. Otherwise I used to lift and compete, however it did not happens on my due on week I used to have to half the weights I physically did not have the energy or interest or patience.
I recommend walking, swimming or any exercise you feel comfortable with. It definitely helps, but when your in that mood and you don't know how exercise helps, it makes you more depressed at the thought. This should be promoted more for pmdd

It's definitely advisable although what you depends on how much energy you have and it's important to pace yourself so you don't burn out.

Any exercise is beneficial as it improves mood by releasing the happy hormones/endorphins

Yes, I found HIIT high interval intensity training to be helpful.
Running is also very helpful.
Yoga

I think the best is to make exercise to feel happier. And of course, if you feel angry you can make a sport that make you sweat a lot.

When a person is experiencing severe symptoms, rest is often best. However at other times it is important to exercise regularly. When experiencing rage and /or anxiety, high intensity cardio such as running can help ease symptoms.

I read my body, I go to the gym 3 times a week, but if I'm having a day with extreme tiredness I think you need to give your body what it needs

I think working out really helped keep my chin up during some tough slumps. I had to force myself out of bed but it truly made a difference

As we all know, anxiety is one of the most frustrating and prominent symptoms when it comes to premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). It's what can make us feel out of control and wired—but completely exhausted at the same time. However, in my own experience, since practicing mindfulness and making an effort to meditate regularly, the anxiety has become an occasional and manageable visitor. Because that's all it is... a visitor.
In this article, I will describe an exercise I came up with after reading various texts and trying out different techniques. Give it a go, and see if you can experience the calming effects, too.
