Depression, insomnia, hyper somnia, headaches, chest pain... Something is always wrong it seems!!???
Posted , 8 users are following.
I'm 36 and feeling worse than my husband's 95 yr old grandmother. Normally I'd laugh about that statement, but it couldn't be more true! I'm depressed most of the time, I've got headaches and migraines on a regular basis. My body hurts most days like I've been beaten, to the point sometimes that it hurts just to walk. My periods have started coming every 3 weeks or so and are insanely heavy, rather than the clockwork 4 wk cycles I was having, not to mention how fatigued I get with them now, and my cramps come toward the end now and hurt 2x more. Now I'm having heavy chest pains that come and go, but its not panic BC I have panic attacks and know how to recognize it. It feels like I swallowed wrong, and antiacids aren't working! I go from being OK to feeling like I'm just certain I'm going to die. I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm tired of hearing family say I'm just a hyperchondriac, these things are happening and its making me think I going crazy!! Please someone tell me that I'm not nuts and that I'm not too young to have all these issues!!!!

no your are not going mad, and that's exactly what I asked my GP, and no your not to young, my daughter who is 21 also suffered really bad pain, she is having an endoscopy next week and being tested for rheumatoid arthritis MS and lupus.
perhaps you could keep a food and mood diary, then approach your GP with it, you may have an intolerance to some foods, I get very gassy as well I think I may be gluten intolerant, shall find out in a couple of weeks.
i don't get bleeds anymore, I am 51 and having a terrible menopause.
good luck and hope you get some answers.

No you are not going nuts.
I feel the same as you, something always seems to be wrong, my Mum & Dad have more energy than me.
I have really bad insomnia at the moment, plus so many peri menopause symptoms. Do hope we all get answers & begin to feel better real soon. x x

you are not nuts. I have anxieties too. I understand how you are feeling. Its just your hormones have you ever had your thyroid checked with the tiredness and your iron and vitd maybe these should be checked to see what is going on
Hang in there

Just to agree with all the other ladies
You are not mad
You are not a hypochondriac
You are not imagining all these horrible aches and pains and crashing fatigue
It sounds like perimenopause.
You are not too young to have started this.
My periods have stopped (I think) but the last few times they were insanely heavy like you describe - I couldn't leave the house at one time because of the flooding.
This forum has really helped me and it can help you too.
You are not alone.
Be kind to yourself.
