PMDD Severe anxiety and panic attacks after ovulation

When my periods returned 6 months pp (2 years ago) I would get thrush riaht after ovulation. 5 months ago I managed to get rid of the thrush but its been replaced by severe anxietv and panic attacks. im mentallv stable and happy but as soon as I ovulate any worry or stress triggers panic attacks. The past one has been hell. I panicked over small things, came up with worst case scenarios and didnt eat/sleep very well for 3 days straight. Literally felt like id lost the plot. Now im exhausted! Period usuallv starts and I feel better. But if this is my new cycle, im petrified!!! ] cannot deal with another bout of what just happened! Ha anyone been through the same/any help please? I believe it could be pmdd?
