Hi Maria,
So sorry to hear about your situation at the moment. I was once told that we should never
make any major decisions when we are too high or too low, sounds like you fit in to the latter at the moment.
You have a hell of a lot going on! As someone advised, please consult a doctor with a view to hormone replacement treatment, menopause shouldn't be underestimated, ever!
I think you've done a brave and positive thing by starting this thread and at least
starting to offload how you are feeling. You touched on not being open regarding your feelings, that's not too good for our emotional wellbeing, especially in your present situation.
With your menopause you may feel 'ultra' sensitive and emotional, compounded by the
colder, darker weather looming.
Do you not have a close friend you can trust? A good soulmate? I'm sure it would
help to offload on a regular basis rather than letting things build up until you are ready to
explode.
Remember, this won't last forever, although sometimes it may feel like it.
Continue to address this, you may not have the answers just now, but at least you have
started to ask the questions.
God bless, Tommy.
