Need Reassurance. .....again

Hello everyone, Here I am needing reassurance that I am not going crazy sad I am having a hard time with thinking all day about doom and gloom thoughts then that makes fearful and panicked. Ugh! Please tell me that I am normal!

No Becky your not, I'm having the same problem. I pray constantly to make it stop

You're not alone love don't worry xxx

Thank you Estrella, I pray too. Im getting to the point of trying medication sad I dont want to but its scary sometimes. I will be praying for you today

Thank you Louise! Praying for you

you are not alone becky and not going crazy.  most of us get that or have done.  i do so i know, have you been diagnosed with anxiety i wonder as this will cause these feelings alone let alone those of us in peri or meno.   I had to go for another walk just now just to get readjusted again.      it all ok.    x

 

Hi Debi no I have never been diagnosed with anxiety....these feelings all started with perimenopause yuck!

Hi becky this menopause is a living hell. We seem to have one thing after another. I understand how you feel is miserable. I pray I could feel normal again. I am such a worrier. I have health issues all the time thinking something wrong with me. I feel constantly fat and bloated have stayed approx the same weight but the fat seems to have layed down in different places nothing fits as it did. My daughter gets married just over 4 weeks and I worry the dress I have will be to tight now too scared to try it on in case I can't cope with what I see .god I need to feel better X please know u are not alone on this one we can all help each other xx

Hi becky, yes you are definatley normal. I am the same as you - doom and gloom and all the other horrid thoughts, plus all this has given me horrible health anxiety and last week had loads of bloods done thinking I had all sorts of nasty diseases I just couldn't stand the not knowing anymore. Thankfully all came back clear, so that worry over until something else crops  up. You are normal and you are certainly not alone , my thoughts are with you x

Hi Becky you are normal with the doom and gloom thoughts tell meno to bogor off

I get that too but I'm trying hard to ignore

Some of my symptoms have hold up for now....but you don't know when they will return like the hot flashes

We have no control over what our bodies are doing to us

You will be OK.

You too hunni. God bless πŸ˜€

I thought I was the only one

Becky your not on your own..I too have had to resort to medication..but I would rather feel better..

I know how you feel. But there are soo many tools: grab an iced tea, watch a movie, call a friend, take a walk, a cool bath, color, meditate, workout, do some eft, join a reiki grp!

Becky, I've never been this down, anxious in my entire life! We're not in full blown menopause yet, so Hormone Thearapy is not an option. I've been taking D3, and B Complex but no real relief. Don't worry your not alone. We will all have to get through this. XO

Becky, you are not crazy, I know exactly how you feel. I have been battling all week as well. This is such a crazy, scary time. You can't help but have these thoughts. Just know this is menopause and I pray how soon we all come out on the other side. You are in my prayers!

Becky you are definitely not alone I thank God for this site I think these ladies are wonderful in here I have horrible anxiety to where I think something awful is wrong with me like today my Lower back get bad and it bothers my leg this has happen many time but I still get anxious over it I found I couldn't wear flat shoes because it's causes agony in my lower back our minds race once one little thing happens nd by the end of the day I'm so exhausted from the anxiety then once I get into bed I can't sleep grrrrrrrr hope we all can get through this prayers and hugs ladies

You are not alone πŸ’š

Hi Becky,

Yes you are normal...this anxiousness and worry that something bad is going on Seema to be common in peri menopause as our hormones fluctuate.

I suffer from it as well....anxiety and excessive worrying. For me it seems to be more health related worry...even though I have had numerous tests which have all been ok. Every time I get a new ache or menopause symptoms I can't help but worry that there something more serious wrong.

I'm an anxious person anyway and this just makes it worse. My doctor wants me to take a medication called Buspar which he says helps with anxiety and excessive worrying. I am considering it.

Hope things settle down for you soonπŸ˜€

becky,  vit D3 will lift your mood after a couple of days on it.  try it first before any other medication.  I find it great.
