Has anyone ever heard of menopause symptoms, really, really bad?
I have just started menopause or at least the part with no more periods. And for the last 8 years I have had anxiety and panic attacks. Now that my periods have disappeared (no times in 4 months) I feel like I’m crazy. My anxiety is so bad I can not stand himself. I forget everything, and the hot flashes are 6-8 times per day. I tried permpro and naxiety got worse. Can someone help me. If you have any advice?
I empathize with you. I had my first anxiety and panic attacks five years before I stopped periods. I have been in full menopause for over four years now.
I had terrible anxiety two years ago. I saw my doctor and asked if I should take hormones. He told me if my hot flashes were not too bad, to skip that; I have never taken replacement hormones. And I found I had high cholesterol when the anxiety was bad.
I found talking to another woman who has gone through menopause to be soothing. I hope you can call a woman older than you who will talk with you.
Some women use herbal remedies, but I did not.
I started taking fish oil capsules, and drinking red wine daily. I felt better when I ate better: more fresh salads and less fat. Time seems to be the best healer. I now eat most anything I want to, and the anxiety has stayed away.
