anxieties and palpitations all day yesterday
Posted , 4 users are following.
On Monday night I had trouble sleeping i was so worked up and anxious about the storms where i live and what is going on with my borfriend. I was up and down crying and keeping my boyfriend up. I was worried about what he is going through. We fought and argued until he left the house yesterday. The stress of my arguing and crying and his problems made him sick to where he passed out and ended up in the hospital on the physch ward.
I was so anxious yesterday having stomach issues and palpitations all day yesterday
How long do I have to put up with these symptoms with the palpitations, the moods being angry then depressed then anxious and the stomach issue.
I am tired of menopause will this ever go away with me not being on HRT or an antidepressant just feel so depressed tonight with out my boyfriend here to be with me just want to cry and hide away

I am also post meno, but dont seem to have these anger issues or anxieties that you explain, i too dont have HRT.
Peri and meno has been no easy phase for me but anger i have never had..
maybe the issues are other than mainly meno, relationship strains may not be just down to meno.
Do you have time apart from your boyfriend or are you together 24/7
Have you also looked at what else maybe causing such anxieties other than menopause, do you have any hobbies or interests to keep your mind busy.
hope hes okay .. And soon back from hospital.
Take care and i hope all is well soon

I tried B vitamins but no longer take them as they can cause/create anxiety in some people....do ask your Dr about them & ask about magnesium. For relaxation, chamomile or other herbal teas, yoga, deep breathing, soothing music, going for a walk, do you have family/friends to talk to or give support, art n craft group you could join. Don't be hard on yourself, do what feels right for you, take each day as it comes. Hope your B/F is ok.
Sending hugs, take care 😊

But one thing I did which really helped was this book. The Anxiety & Phobia Workbook By Edmund J. Bourne, Ph.D
I read it several times. Its a very practical guide to deal with anxiety. I got to the piont of when I felt it coming on I said to said to myslef. Well it anxiety trying ot smack me in the back fo the head again. Once I took the fear out of it. It no longer had a hold on me. Sometimes I just let it pass through me. Because I knew I would come out okay on the other side. each day it got better. I still have some anxeity but i know what to do with it now.

Life stories come back to us at sensitive times and
make things worse.
I'll pm you a link. If you have the patience to watch you may find some sense in what you're feeling lately. Okay?
