I seem to have turned a massive corner. Is it a coincidence that I posted on here then all things seemed to improve the following day. One thing I did do that I hadn't done for a while was cried. It's tough when you live alone sometimes (or it is for me) always trying to discuss things with yourself often seems to be a bit one- sided
BUT I gave myself one hell of a kick up the backside and I feel so much happier. I will still go for my blood test in 10 days time but from being in a very low place I seem to have climbed out. Is this temporary, I don't know. Without this sounding patronising I now realise and appreciate that so many women on here are having a truly dreadful time with the menopause
and really suffering and I think that put my own personal situation well and truly into perspective. Without having been on this forum I was thinking my symptoms were pretty bad and with no one to chat to about it probably made it all seem a lot worse. This place really is a Godsend. I just want to thank you again for supporting people (like me) you have never met and for sharing your very personal experiences with the menopause and offering advice even when many of you are going through some pretty bad times yourselves.
