4am awake with thumping heart, anxiety starting all over again - this is all so horrible and all I want is to feel happy and enjoy life like all you other lovely ladies do aswell. Not getting easier. Hoping you are all in peaceful slumber unlike me x 😥

    Only 10:17 pm where I am! Watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Sorry you're not sleeping peacefully right now. Heart palpitations are scary. I take a low dose of a beta blocker. Been doing that for years. Works wonders for me.

      Yes Ive had that on the telly aswell - watching all those dancers shaking their hips wishing I could find the motivation to do anything at all !

      Do you exercise? I find that helpful for motivation. Yoga is great for relaxation. There are even videos if you don't want to find a class. And maybe look for a place to volunteer. It helps us when we help others.

      Yes I get tons of Exersise in my work and am knackered by lunchtimes ! Until fairly recently I used to walk two miles a day to our local shop and back as we live in a very rural area ( suits me fine ) but can't be bothered now, too tired. Ive heard that yoga is very good on so many levels I'll have a look thanks .

      That's a great idea to swerve yourself away from peri/meno hell. to pre-occupy yourself with another interiest, & so rewarding mentally to help others.

    Hi Lou, Im sorry that you are not able to sleep right now. It is 8:20 pm here and I am already feeling anxious about bedtime myself. This is miserable! Have you ever tried warm milk? I make some every night. It helps me smile I will be praying for you right now that you are able to relax your mind and body and fall asleep. Take care!

      Hi becky, yes I have warm milk with a spoon of honey - my friend keeps bees and im very lucky to receive the occasional jar, does nothing for me but tastes lovely - it's just trying different things that help but sadly Havnt found the answer yet. Hope you sleep well ????

      Yes honey is lovely and has so many healing properties and lots of uses for us, try some x

      Yes something quite enchanting about honey when we think of how such a natural product does so many things for us, only one spoon a day is needed - helps allergies, heals wounds etc etc. good luck x

    I'm awake too. Completely nauseous as usual. I know everyone says this will pass but I'm so sick of being sick. I've got a thirteen year old daughter who I fear thinks I'm dying. Add that to feeling like crap every day, the only respite I got was sleep and now that appears to be gone.

      Ah Molly poor you and I understand your worries about your daughter, I have two but they're grown up now - my youngest worries too when she sees me looking so rough and haggered. Let's just hope the day comes soon where we all feel better, huh can't see it myself ??
