Hi ive been off hrt tablets now 12mths. I had been on them
since 2008 due to having hysterectomy. I was 41 now 51 BUT in the lasf few
weeks ive been very emotional, crying a lot, very low, very easily stressed out
I never had this problem before.
I was wondering if menopause issues can arise again, after being off the
Hrt so long.
I do need to say though im not normally a stressful person but recently im having p
problems with my daughter in law who suffers with Biopolar and pregnant.
She been very abusive towards me, threatening with me and my husband, our son
and grandchildren. Saying she'll stop them coming round. I don't know what
Or were to turn and im turning on my husband(my rock) . Someone help please

Hi Gayle, obviously the family stress is causing big upset for your system. But at times, there are issues to deserve some tears. For me, it was being the primary cregiver for my father dying of Alzheimer's disease. I did 3 1/2 years of care, and was sitting with him on his bed when he passed. I think I cried a river through these years.
I have some limited experience with bipolar, as my cousin husband was diagnosed. All I can tell you is the appropriate medication will help your DIL, however being pregnant certainly complicates everything.
I think you'd do well to go and talk with your physician. Maybe you need to revisit the estrogen issue, as that can cause issues. And let him know about the family stress. Maybe an antidepressant is in order.
I think the best you can do is be good to yourself, understand that the swings of bipolar minds will always be difficult, and support your son and grandkids all you can. I'm sorry your son has to deal with this. Possibly a divorce might be in the future. (happened for my cousin) But for now, remember to take care of yourself, or you won't be good for anyone. Not your husband, son, grandkids, or yourself.

I'm sat here reading your reply crying because what you say is so true. A person that doesn't even know me, can pin point so clearly especially divorce, which me and my husband said our son would do when the 2 grandchildren are older enough but she's pregnant again. It's so hard to take the abusive text and she drives to our house, shouting foul language out the window. Thanks for listening.

You're more than welcome Gayle. When our children and grandchildren hurt, so do we. But unless and until your DIL is stablized on the correct medication, her swings will continue. There's reall nothing you can do about it. If you haven't already, read about bipolar disorder. At least that will help you understand her problem. Maybe then you won't take her insults personally.
