Fed up with Head Pressure & Drunk feeling

Hi Ladies! Sunaina, I'm sorry you are feeling this way. On Monday, I felt deeply depressed...I cried for hours, was angry and very depressed...It came out of nowhere and surprised me. It also led me to call my gyno to ask her for a prescription for bio-identicals. I started them Monday night so we'll see how it goes. I will post something on this site when the effects kick in. I just want to say you are not alone, yes, I've been dizzy and "drunk" as well. It's so weird. You are right not taking anti-depressants, I believe they will give you more bad side effects than help you. I also believe most doctors don't care (and I only go to women doctors). Our symptoms are very real. Mine have kept me from being social for years. I do go out and try to have some sort of social life but prefer reading a good book at home. Anxiety, depression, hot flashes have all taken their toll. Dry mouth has made me miserable for 8 years now! I just live with it - I have to use Natures Gate toothpaste - everthing else will make me suffer for days! Dry vagina and zero libido have been awful and I'm hoping the bio-identicals help fix that. I can't imagine living this way for the rest of my life. The good news is: Except for the dry mouth and vag, all my symptoms have come and go over the past 3 years. I just turned 55 and am post meno. Please hang in there! It will subside. Try to find supplements that work for you. Google bio-identicals to see if that is right for you. Mine were about $32 (I have no insurance) for a month's supply and I'm counting on them to work for me. Also, ladies, make sure you have the GoodRX app on your smartphone. That saved me about $30 on bio identicals!! Take care of yourself. Go shopping and back to the salon, Sunaina, all the little things you loved before you can love again and they will make you feel better. Do things that make you happy again. Hugs to you! -K

I feel ya, just got back from vacation and my head is driving me crazy! it feels like I'm moving when I'm sitting still. like you, I just want it to be over!

I'm glad I found this post. I don't have dizziness - yet. But over the past 2 weeks I've developed this weird sensation in my head and face. I don't know quite how to describe it. It's not really numbness or pressure. It's definitely not pain. It's almost like my skin is pulling or crawling. Sometimes it's on the top of my head, sometimes on my forehead, and sometimes on my cheeks. My cheeks just feel like they are ultra dry, but only for a few minutes. Sometimes my lips burn/tingle. I've been having extremity paresthesia for about a year and chalked it up to hormones, but this is scarier. I also have extreme anxiety exacerbated by a new job and a family crisis. It's just nice to know that I'm not crazy and other women have "weird" perimenopausal symptoms.
