Diary of a Luteal Fugitive. A True Story of PMDD

Jo Grey is a writer, mother, and survivor of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. After years of misdiagnosis, shame, and silence, she began documenting her experience as a way to stay tethered to the truth, and to herself. Diary of a Luteal Fugitive is her first book: a letter to the women living this reality, and a battle cry for those still trying to name it.

Every month, she vanished. This is the story of what happened in the dark.

Diary of a Luteal Fugitive is not just a memoir. It's a raw, unfiltered account of living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, a condition that hijacks the mind, fractures identity, and steals half your life while the world insists it's "just hormones."

Told in visceral detail, this is one woman's fight to hold on, to her child, her relationships, her sense of self, through the tidal pull of a disorder that arrives like clockwork and rips through everything. From breakdowns behind closed doors to the silent performance of seeming "fine," it exposes the split between the version of her that lives, laughs, creates... and the one that disappears into rage, despair, and numbness.

These are notes from the edge of sanity and back again.
One woman. Two selves. Every month.
You might not know this version of womanhood. But you should.
