I told you, this kind of manipulation doesn't work with me, research is my skill lol. The only thing I claimed was that its a controversial issue, how many links would you like me to waste my peaceful night finding for you and what would you like them to say?

Any evidence whatsoever to back up your claim. You know, step one.

If it interests you that much cant you do it? Just goto google scholar and search pmdd + controversy, pmdd + sarafem. pmdd plus feminism, pmdd+ dsm5,  pmdd + brain changes.  <---Actually that one is pretty damn interesting, let me get it for you, but you do realize its 4;30 am here and this is annoying. I hate that I'm not sleeping at night, I hear birds waking up ugggg Sad BRB

RE: pmdd
No, I'm not doing your research for you. You made the claim. If you want to convince others you can bring the evidence. Until you do, you're just another internet crackpot slinging conspiracy theories.

RE: pmdd
So what is the OP arguing exactly anyway? That pmdd is made up, and the OP is referring to empirical studies that support the existence of pmdd while he/she is skeptical of the research???

Just posted a shitload of information and for whatever reason it didn't post and now I've wasted 1 hours of my sleep on this, I'm sure one of you had magical powers to make that happen... whatever...

Will post more tomorrow unless you decide to delete that as well...

Pretty slick...

Not sold.

PS

Name calling is the weakest defence to a debate one can have and understand,I  have no desire to convince anybody of anything, I don't give a shit what anybody believes I just wanted to see whether this was a group of narcissistic asshats or a bunch of intelligent conversationalists. I couldn't care less what you think feel or believe or anybody else...I'm not that codependant sorry. Your opinion means jack to me

Its time for bed... long ago. ugggg gross

RE: pmdd
It probably got caught in the spam filter. Calm down, tin foil man.

ETA: Nope, that was all your fuck up. No posts in the spam filter, no recent actions in the moderation log.

Firstly I wanted to see first how atheists here respond to such an issue, and sadly, found that it's no different than theists. I was hoping the intelligence factor would make a difference but no.

Secondly, I wanted to see how skeptics feel about an issue like this where when there is a medical condition with no solid evidence to support it as a hormone condition, yet by not supporting that hypothesis, by calling it a mental illness you are stigmatizing a group of woman based on their period... (a hormone induced biological function that they have little control over).

Not that anyone really gives a shit here but if you are a humanist and psychology, hormones, neurotransmitters etc interests you, do search pmdd + controversy and you might get the whole picture. 

The last post was entertaining by the way, you should consider writing a horror film
As I said before, not all atheists are sceptics.
Also, they're not all more intelligent than theists.
And, have you seen how many threads there are here?
By posting links you could save a lot of people a lot of time.
Why not just do a new thread without the, 'as an atheist' bit and put in a link or two.
I bet you'll get a completely different response.

RE: pmdd
Research is clearly not your skill. Pmdd is not a mental illness and is not generally not treated with anti depressants. A simple Google search will tell you that the first line of treatment is typically birth control, there are specific types (low estrogen iirc) that help best with regulating hormones as a defense against pmdd. The second step is an anxiolytic which is probably what you're mistakenly thinking of as an antidepressant but it's actually just an anxiety medicine.

I still don't know where the controversy is. Please show us where this is a highly debated topic.
