The 41-year-old thanked her fans for supporting her on Instagram after she revealed she had been diagnosed with PMDD.

‘It has been a little overwhelming today but I want to say thank you to every person that has dm me, reached out…but most importantly the women who have messaged me to say that they are now to going to go to a doctor and ask for help,’ she began.

She continued: ‘Im no expert but I know what I’ve been trying to navigate for the last three years and diagnosed 12 months ago is that I feel better knowing I wasn’t going crazy.’

‘I’m learning to accept it and find the natural resources to keep it under control. I hope time sharing this helps anyone who is going through this vicious cycle.’

She she it’s important ‘to listen to your body and if something feels not balanced you’re most likely right.’

Jules opened up about her battle with PMDD on The Juggling Act podcast, revealing she ‘knew something was wrong’ after the birth of her son Oliver in 2020.

‘It was about three months in, and obviously because you’ve got so many hormones going on [post-partum], you don’t really know if you’re coming or going,’ she said.

'It has been a little overwhelming today but I want to say thank you to every person that has dm me, reached out...but most importantly the women who have messaged me to say that they are now to going to go to a doctor and ask for help,' she wrote on Instagram

‘But I’d stopped breastfeeding and I’d just got my period [again] and it was just the most intense emotions and feelings.’

She continued: ‘I am so emotional [when I’m menstruating]. I actually feel like I can’t get through – you almost feel like you can’t deal with life.’

‘I can only explain it as you just feel like you can’t function with life, and I think I cut myself [off] from the world.’

Jules explained how she felt another ‘level of despair’ following the birth of her son.

‘It got really bad when I was actually in Bali … It was awful. I had really dark, horrible thoughts, and that’s when I was like “This is not me”,’ she continued.

Jules said after a doctor diagnosed with PMDD, she has been able to seek treatment options.

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a more severe form of the more common premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

PMDD can cause severe physical and mental symptoms that begin seven to 10 days before menstruation and can continue for the first few days of a period, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
