Really down today

I've been feeling wired last few days, cold shivery but I've made myself swim and do yoga....just feel so very low today, its tiring typing this....have a few family stresses....I feel my heart is tired and sore and empty.....don't know whether to rest or go out, I just feel mentally and physically exhausted and very low.....this journey at times is soul destroying....I have two girls to look after and feel like I don't care.....devastated about this journey today...just want to cry.....I want my lovely nurturing caring hormones back, still in peri but periods closer together...any advice would be great....tried hrt but felt wired

So hard to say as you say a few family stresses, tell me about, these alone i can vouch for you give that sore and empty feeling and its not nice.
Whilst is good to try and exercise maybe when your feeling cold and shivery you have a virus or something else. So id say exercise in moderation and itds good you feel you can force yourself as they say some form of exercise is good and to even go for a short walk when your feeling down if possible ids good but dont push yourselfe to the point of exhaustion. You have two girls to look after as well and that on its own is demanding especially when you dont feel right yourself.
You may find your periods get close together then they will start being further apart like only one every two months and longer till you have none. How long did you stay on the HRT and what way did you feel weird?
The fact you felt tiring typing this tells me you may have a virus which hopefully will pass. Hope it improves for you. Are you on your own, any partner or good friends and family?

It will happen. I was fearful it wouldn't for me, but it has. Not sure there are any words that will actually help you at this point other than knowing, it's temporary. I hated the fatigue, not feeling like me and not being sure I wasn't going to be stuck like that.
Only thing I can say, as susan wrote above, menopause is way better than peri. This will all pass.
Sending you hugs.
