Coming bacl to yourself

I do feel that way at times too. I think we start to feel like if this s it, my life of anxiety and feeling horrible all the time then whats the point right? I try to keep the faith that God has plans for me. For all of us. Maybe the best has yet to come?

Hi babe, I thought this way for a while and beat myself up about it. Then my 23 year old autistic son made me see sense by reminding me that I have been changing all through my life as each new phase approached, and I got used to it. I realised he had a good point. I got used to having hormones as a teenager and periods, I got used to being more adult as I entered the workforce, I adapted to the changes that motherhood brought and I'm learning to cope with all this nuttiness now. I've accepted that I wont be the same again, but I can still get on a nd enjoy life and face each challenge as it comes. It all tikes time hun, but we'll get there x

Yep I do x

I'm totally with you on this, I'm only 36 and in peri and I often wonder when willi be me again, I've cancelled so many plans with friends cause I really don't want to socialise, I'd rather spend all my time on the sofa shut away, and that's not me at all :'(

I understand!!! I have thought this to. I think doing as much of the stuff you love to do that brings you peace us impt.

Ex: it's about 10 am here in nyc. I walked the dog, chanted, did some eft, washed the dishes, took 1 passionflower and 1 Ashwadgahra and now feel less anxious. One day at a time

Perimenopause can take a toll both emotionally and physically. Hang in there and know your not alone. Hugs!

Yip me too Maria.....not always believed but what I've experienced has left me in no doubt and pray daily....sometimes feel like life is over.but sure there's something positive after this hell.lol

Hi Maria, those feelings of despair will go away and you won't think this way. So resta assured that is a light at the end of this nightmare tunnel, where life will be back to normal. It doesn't feel that way now but it will with time. Hang in there, you're doing great. Hugs, xx

 

Hi Maria, I've felt like that way many times since Peri hit. I do know things will get better, then worse, then better again. I never in a million years would have guessed that most women will have to face this unsettling time of life. I've been fighting the symptoms of peri for about 7 years now, and I'm still scratching my head and wondering why I never heard anything about Peri or how it can wreck your life before! Where is the outcry? Why aren't medical professionals doing more to educate, prepare, and help women and their families? I know personally what this can do to all relationships. But all we can do is be proactive with our health , educate ourselves and insist our doctors take us seriously. Hang in there, Maria....we'll get through this, and maybe be able to help others when their turn comes.
