I feel just like you Maria, I want to act like myself but just can’t it’s really upsetting, I’ve cancelled loads of things because I just can’t face socialising, I feel like my whole personality has changed. I wake up everyday and hope I feel ok, some days are better than others but mostly I just feel so down and fed up with all the aches and pains, anxiety, health anxiety and headaches. I’m trying different things at the moment, yoga, aromatherapy, mediation just in the hope things will improve, you are not alone xx
Yes i am axious all they time i dont want to go out with freinds just wa t ro be at home . Are you postmenopausal?
I am lile this 2 this health anxiety is taking over my life
Always think something is wrong x
I always think there is something seriously wrong with me, whatever pain I have I jump to the conclusion it’s the worst possible outcome and I cant help it. I’ve had so many tests, scans, endoscopy you name it I’ve had it, I still think the doctors have missed something. It takes over your life x
Hi Maud, yes I'm Post got no periods now..are you relax sitting down or in bed
Caroline I don't think there's anything wrong with us everyday we get up and nothing..are you taking anything to relax you..I was talking to my cousin and she's says oh I don't worry about anything if she was going through the menopause like us she wouldn't say that..she only getting minimal symptoms not big major ones I hope she don't get real thing
In bed i feel anxious all the time typing this i just want to cry x
Hi Maria ... I feel like you .. I am post meno! I take HRT I feel so good on them can't believe how different? I had to stop them for a while ... now I feel anxious (Not Health Anxiety) I get hot sweats then the next minute I'm freezing cold, I like you feel a different person .. Horrible feeling like this.
Hi Maud I feel as you do, very anxious when in bed mornings are the worst for me! I am back on HRT now but they take a while to work, I feel so good when on them. Not for everyone thou ! I need quality of life, awful feeling as we do 
Well with me it's Anixety I'm bothered about.and if I can sleep it off it would help..in June last year I felt better come November I went back meno I'm hoping I will get better soon we have to tell our selves that anyway people say it's not for ever.
maud don't cry you are ok we all are its feelings that's why they can't find anything wrong with us
DITTO LADIES! Maria, Mars, Maud, Caroline, I feel exactly the same, this menopause has taken over my life! Never knowing what to do next is awful, you can't plan anything because you know your just going to feel dizzy nausea, forgetful fluish , anxiety, panicky, and just plain ol sick! Can't do nothing, except crawl into your hole and hope today or tomorrow is the day you feel better, and when you have a good day (few and far between) then your constantly thinking ok when's it going to hit me again! I'm right there with you all 😅
Awww I know how you feel. I try and find something that will make me laugh allot. Have you checked your thyroid? When mine is off I’m cold and depressed
Mine is anxiety 2 what do you take for it ?
I just finished a huge conversation about this at home.
I am 55 and in menopause.
I am not comfortable being home (which is my favorite place) and certainly do not want to be out.
When I am out I do what I have to do as quickly as possible to get home.
I am extremely anxious. I do not see really anyone, except for who I have to see.
I also had postpartum depression and this is exactly how I felt.
I was told all those years ago, that I may have a hard time going through menopause.
Hi Nanc, I understand how your feeling..I'm comfortable home but I need to sleep I think when I get a good sleep I'm bit better the next day..it's important do you sleep at night I'm looking for something I tried stuff but sometimes don't always work..I must ask you do you watch the TV and how are you up in bed
deedee, had 3 thyroid checks fine so they say..I think we need jokes on here someone that will come on and make us laugh loads don't you think that would be good.
What is Anxiety 2...is there different ones
Caroline I find when I sleep I'm not bad if don't get it I'm ratty..it does get me down too, I'm on the sofa here at the moment not comfortable just driving myself mad..but I'm going to fight it all the way
