    JESUS is in the midst of our everyday, pouring His power into us. 

    When we believe that anything is bearable, nothing is out of control.

    Hi! So glad to have found this. I have been going through peri for a few years now..I am 49 years old. My periods over the last year have gotten less frequent with skipping a month or two altogether to having light periods that are longer in duration..10 to 12 days. I did not have a period in June, but now this month I started with light spotting for about 10 days that turned into a little heavier flow with a few clots, mostly in the morning and then just light spotting again off and on for the rest of the day...I am now on day 16. I went to the Dr..gyn a week ago, she did a pelvic exam and listened to my symptoms and felt that it was normal peri symptoms. I am taking Iron daily and Multi vitamins. I have no pain. I do have some hot flashes occasionally. anxiety and insomnia, thankfully the drenching night sweats that used to accompany this have been gone for over a year now. The Dr does not seem concerned at all, nor does a friend of mine who is a nurse practitioner..but I just wonder how long this will go on?! I try not to worry but it is hard when what used to be a normal by the book every 28 days for 5 days has turned into this insanity!!! Anyone else have these symptoms?

      Well I've been in peri nine years. I had one period Nov 2015 then nothing till May 2016. Spotted for a week and would you believe it another period today after nearly three months. I am beginning to think they are never gonna end. I've had and still have every symptom there is to have. Anxiety topping the list.

      I thank God for all these lovely women who get me through.

      I had major meltdown today over dinner. My husband nearly got his in his head. He really annoyed me lol. Now I know why. A lovely period again not!!!!

      I just want it all to be over.

      I was just moaning to my mum and told her I'm gonna be having periods till I'm 90!!!!

      Yeah I know not possible but I'm being very irrational today.

      Keep posting keep positive x

      Thank you for your reply..I too whine to my momma...we never outgrow the need for our moms when life gets crazy do we?? 

      Thankfully my hubby is pretty understanding about all this and hates that I worry and am anxious so much!! 

      I feel as you..will this stop?!! Have you ever gone on for 16 days of spotting and light flow? When I asked the nurse how long it could go on she said, "everyone is different." I know it could be worse I could be in pain and bleeding heavily. Trying to concentrate on the positive and not google every symptom I have obsessively! smile

      I do believe in prayer and am a Christian. Thankfully to have a place to chat about this with women who feel the same and who understand!

    St. Jude please help all women in need of relief from these menopause symptoms. The aches and pains, hot flashes, insomnia, and forgetfulness can be unbearable. Heal us and make us well so that we can enjoy life again. I pray to you St. Jude.

    Prayer for Anxiety

    Heavenly Father, 

    When I feel crushed by my own worries,

    Lift my mind and help me to see the truth. 

    When fear grips me tight and I feel I cannot move,

    Free my heart and help me to take things one step at a time. 

    When I can't express the turmoil inside, 

    Calm me with Your quiet words of love. 

    I choose to trust in You, each day, each hour, each moment of my life.

    I know deep down that I can cast these cares on You, that you have taken these anxious thoughts and by dying on the cross, You have set me free. 

    I choose to trust in You, each day, each hour, each moment of my life. 

    I know deep down that I live in Your grace, forgiven, restored by Your sacrifice, You have set me free. 

    Amen

    I am having some anxiety tonight before bed and needed something to calm me down. I wanted to share this in case anyone was struggling as well. Praying for all of you beautiful ladies.

      Oh I wish that I could take credit for that prayer. I was having major anxiety last night before bed so I looked up prayers for anxiety. I came across that one. I hope to one day pray that way. Hope that you have a great day smile

      Its a website. They erase my last post. I looked up anxiety before bedtime. The site was lords-prayer-words. See if that gets through without actually putting up the whole site.
