    The way I see it... you feel worse if you drink excessively, but we feel bad anyway. Might as well have some fun. AND get a good night's sleep. 😉

    I agree with Karen. Drink up and have some fun!

    Honestly, I never saw any difference in my symptoms when I cut out everything.

    Although I do find that wine now gives me a headache. Maybe go with whiskey! :-0

    Everyone is different. I had two margaritas with a friend and we laughed so hard. I needed to laugh. Two drink max for me though. Have some drinks honey!

    im not a big drinker, but when i have a cocktail i start to relax, and feel a little at ease, takes the edge off for a few hours.

    Try not to think so much about! Don't let meno ruin your life! Life goes on and meno is just a hormonal imbalance and not a disease. I was at a very dark emotional state a year ago but things are much better now! Hope it helps! 😃
