Stupid question-plz don't take offense
Posted , 16 users are following.
Hi- for as much of a comfort it is to know im not alone with a lot of what im feeling, do any of you find sometimes it gives you more anxiety when you read the posts? Like sometimes i dont want to read anything because i almost feel worse after and i hope nobody takes offense to that bcuz i feel like i know you guys haha even tho i dont. Maybe because it makes things so much more real? Sometimes i think if i just stop reading things and start forcing myself to do things even wth how weak shaky, anxious and miserable im feeling I'll feel better but then the vicious cycle begins all over again. I hope u guys understand what im saying and im making sense and not offending anyone because thats not what im intending to say is that you guys give me anxiety haha because you dont, for some reason there are times i get notification of a post and i dont even read it because im afraid and i dont know why:( sorry for the babbling just wondering if im the only one who feels this way at times. Hugs to all ❤

I am having many symtoms from last year but at that time i donot have idea its Harmones doing all this.
every time i was thinking what going on....No Idea at that time....i Google my symtoms and soo many scary things come into my mind. ..By thinking soo many bad things i start feeling depressed and sad.....my symtoms increases........now when i read other friends post i realise that at that time my peri started......i have these symtoms Knee pain...headaches ....breast tenderness all is because of changing harmones ...
Now with other friends post and their symtoms i can co relate mine..
And if u know its Harmones..its part of womanhood u start accepting it and feel little less depressed and sad....So for me this FORUM IS BLESSING..discussing my problem give me relief not physically but yes mentally...
Sometimes i think i should know about this forum earlier...😀
Tk

Sunaina1983,
Yes I wish I would've found this forum right when I started having all of my symptoms. It slowly started last April 2019 and by June it was so many symptoms. I found this forum and it was a Godsend. It helped me in so many ways to know that I wasn't alone. So many of the women inspired me by their posts they had written as well as their encouraging replies. Even though their replies weren't directed to me - they helped me so much ...they really have no idea how much it got me through the rough times. I am thankful for you and all of the women here!

I think we all understand exactly what you're feeling, Susan39015. Health anxiety seems to be a big part of this menopause thing!
Sometimes I won't even read a post, depending upon what the title suggests. It may ramp up my fears . On the other hand it feels good to be able to reassure one of us that she is not alone or crazy or dying! It is reassuring to know that others feel what you do, and are coping.
So i totally understand what you're saying ...hugs!!
