Can't take it anymore

Posted , 16 users are following.

Honestly cant deal. I know googling is the worst thing to do but i did.

At times wth all these symptoms I swear it feels like the early stages of AlS and not hormonal. Yet the Drs say everythings fine.

    Me either... I absolute hate dealing with this period and everything thing that happens during it. I don't like the extra weight gain which is so hard to fight off. And now I'm having foot problems-- tendinitis in my foot.. I hope this is it because I'm ready for the ol folks home at 50.

    It's horrible! I goggle too and probably shouldn't because that makes things worse. I leave goggle and come here to talk to ladies who can relate. I just know it's got to get better. This wkend has been so trying and difficult with all these symptoms. I don't understand either. Ugh!!! Hopefully we ALL will feel better.

I come her to find solace! as rightly mentioned, nobody understands us unless they have been thru it personally. so y bother talking about it. instead i just come here...read thru the posts, respond to some and wish everyone here strength to get thru this stage and come out the other end soon. Thanks to all!

    Ya don't Google!! That was my huge mistake. It made my anxiety sooo bad and now I have completely lost control of it. I've become a hypochondriac. Every little twitch I get I instantly panic and I know there is no reason too. It's changed me so much. I don't enjoy life, my appetite is gone. I try to eat just to keep my body functioning. The minute I stew about something my tummy starts to feel funny and I can't eat.

    I know my low hormones are to blame to a degree. I get HRT on Wednesday so praying that will help and relax my nerves and put an end to this horrible anxiety and misery!

    Thank all of you ladies for your replies. I know i need to stop googling it is just so hard feeling these things and being told youre fine. I am also under a lot of stress have been for a long time and now faced with wanting to leave my marriage but i dint know where to begin bcuz i dont make enough money. Hopeless does not begin to describe how im feeling. There arent enough words.

    Thank you all for listening:) Iwish you all better days ❤

    hey Susan

    I hear you loud and clear. I'm currently in bed my partner asleep next to me and guess what I've been doing? yes googling. this has been going on for years now, I've diagnosed myself with ever cancer going I've taken myself to hospital more times than I can remember because I've thought I was seriously ill. to thinking I had hepatitis linked to liver cancer, to thinking I couldn't swallow, the list goes on and on far too many times and symptoms to write on here. the thing what nobody realises is, I was actually feeling am these symptoms I wasn't making them up, yes I now know my anxiety was making them worse and as for googling, well what can I say I still do it. well now I think everything which I have suffered has been linked to the menopause, not long ago I thought I had ALS, I twitch regularly and had aching weak muscles. I was convinced. now I'm worried I'm getting g alzheimer's as my memory is shocking. yesterday I couldn't remember if it was 2018 or 2019. I'm frightened to death so I know exactly how you are feeling. big hugs and take care xx

    Sounds like me. I have stopped and now I read on here. This forum is awesome. Of course it doesn't always help the worry. Every ache I think the worst. Google is not helpful.
