hello ladies. i am losing my mind. i am 49, definatetly premenopausal. my only prescription is progesterone. lately my mind s going nonstop. i can remember EVER stupid thing I have done or said. the remorse is overwhelming. is this part of menopause? or am i losing my mind? i have long periods, sometimes 2x a month. now my mind is a nonstop quilt trip. not sure i can take anything else.....
i do the same thing sometimes and i have always felt like its how my depression comes out. My mind also always goes straight to worst case scenario. I had a therapist tell me once its a habit that i have become good at and its like my brain’s comfort zone now. haha. nice right?
Anyways, whenever my mind goes to feelings like you are talking about. I just tell myself there is nothing that can be done about it now and I just need to leave it in the past and try to be the better person that i have become now. And yes i do feel like it is magnified by our hormones being out of whack in peri. It has been unbelievable to me how much it has affected me psychologically. Much worse than the physical symptoms.
