PMDD: The Horror
The Horrors of PMDD When I first learned about PMDD, which stands for premenstrual dysphoric disorder, it was introduced to me in a pharmaceutical commercial. I honestly thought that they either created this as a made up disorder or a heightened version of PMS to sell their drugs. Also, when I first learned what PMS was, it was by a girlfriend at camp who told me it gives you cramps and lowers your mood right before you get your menstrual cycle. I honestly was not worried and I thought it would never affect me like it was some rare thing. What I didn’t know was that I would be rudely awakened by the strongest affects of PMDD symptoms.

Sir Ivan Proves Heroism Runs in his Genetics
Sir Ivan Proves Heroism Runs in His Genetics If you never read the book ‘Unstoppable’, you should now. ‘Unstoppable’ is a biography of Siggi Wilzig, Sir Ivan’s father, and talks about his journey from being a Holocaust survivor to a man making millions on Wall Street. Who is Sir Ivan? Well for one thing, he created his name for writing his music but it also makes sense he’s a Sir because he lives in a castle in the Hamptons. What he is really known for is his hospitality to his friends and for recreating John Legend’s song, ‘Imagine’ to honor his father Siggi and what his father went through in the Holocaust. He also has spoken at at least one synagogue to speak about his father, his legacy and the Holocaust.
