I'm jittery, anxious, and constantly thinking about my own death and my family's. I know it's hormones and not taking anything for menopause symptoms.
Shelley, moi aussi et je ne prends rien non plus ! Je vis tout ce que tu as dit et BIEN BIEN BIEN plus encore !
Yes completely understand. Had a horrific time with obsessive negative thinking through my life but with Peri meno it took on a life if its own. It almost sent me crazy. I'm on bio identical hormones now and with my hormones being more balanced its almost completely gone away.
Yup that's me. After a difficult year of tests and biopsies, all good s ok but my psyche is not. My jittery feelings became shaky, sweaty, over anxious. It got unbearable. I didn't really know if it was a disease or anxiety attacks. My Dr put me on a very low dose once a day of Xanax and it helps. I quit after 9 days and it got worse. Dr put me back on and it is a little better. I have a busy month and cannot even get to a therapist. Never been to a therapist in my life.vi never even took pain killers! Now here I am...
Hello.
Yes, I have anxiety, panic attacks, depression, weepiness, agitation, irritability, anger, melancholy, racing thoughts, insomnia, thoughts I can't control, thoughts of doom and gloom and many physical symptoms too.
I am having acupuncture twice a week and it is helping with the sleep and emotional issues and helping with constipation and frequent urination and night sweats.
I'm putting off HRT but may try Bioidentical HRT.
You are not alone. There are many posts here that have helped me SO much. It helps me to know I'm not alone.
Take care.
Salut Shelley, mon Dieu. Tu n'es pas seule, comme tu peux le voir avec toutes ces dames, y compris moi. J'ai été nerveuse et anxieuse pendant un an et demi maintenant.. j'espère que la fin de la péri ménopause est demain ! Je pense que j'arrive à la fin. Mais j'ai pris un THS pendant un an, et ça a aidé un peu. Ça me rend un peu plus moi-même, c'est sûr... mais j'ai encore des mauvais jours et puis il y a de bons jours que je profite pleinement. Tu dois essayer de te pousser à faire des choses que tu aimes, peu importe comment tu te sens. Ça va s'améliorer. Juste j'espère que ce sera bientôt ! Des câlins pour toi... sens-toi mieux.
Yes.. I went thru a couple weeks where that's all I thought about... I was in a panic Oh My Goodness my parents are old 'what am I going to do when they go' It was an awful time.. Then I was thinking about my own kids and how can I protect them... Just sad and tearful. Just hoping that I go first so I don't have to go thru any of it-- selvish I know but that's how my mind was thinking..
Acupunture does help and I need to get back to her. She is patient, listens and assures that I'm not crazy.
Omg this was me everyday for aboi t 6 months
Or so. I was put on a low dose BC back on Dec which took a few months but has def helped. I still feel the same as you from time to time but those symptoms aren't as long or as strong. Acupuncture has helped me so much also. Esp foe the anxiety keep your chin up know that this won't last forever and knmow that everyone here is here for you. We are woman we are strong. Sending big hugs.
Thanks, it's good to talk.
50 en un peu plus d'une semaine.. normalement très heureux mais il y a l'inquiétude de la mort, l'hypocondrie et tout ce truc amusant... pas de douleurs ou de maux majeurs, mais le vieillissement me travaille.. beurk.
