Horrible Racing Negative Thoughts

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi ALL,

I have NOT had a period in three years. I am FULL-BLOWN menopausal! Having said that, when menopause hit, it hit like a friggin' tsunami! The symptoms became worse when my period ended and are STILL worse!!! OMG!! I don't know how I'm going to feel from day-to-day! Every day is a NEW hell! ONE of my worse symptoms is the CONSTANT negative thoughts; they are absolutely debilitating, and come from out of nowhere! These thoughts race relentlessly; they are EVIL, UNWANTED, intrusive, and horrifying! Those thoughts are NOT who I am; they are NOT me, and I have to constantly tell myself, it's due to hormonal imbalance! UNFORTUNATELY, hormones RULE during perimenopause & menopause,

ladies! It's like they have a mind of their own! I have a decent diet, I exercise, I journal, take great vitamins, see my doctor regularly, etc... yet the DARK HELL of menopause pushes through, and I feel its chronic WRATH immensely!!
