Sorry - I just need to get this out.
Been taking Evorel Conti since Dec last year. It's not my first time on HRT (had Mirena & Evorel 25 before this), no idea if it's the patches causing how I'm feeling - I guess it is but just need to vent.
I feel so low. I had Friday off work as I felt so run down, glands were up, no energy. I slept for ages, spent the weekend knowing that I had stuff to do but no energy or inclination to get off my bum to do it. Came to work today but just feel so tearful and low. Keep crying in the toilets and have been moody with everyone (not good when you're first point of contact). I just want to be at home with my husband and dogs and be away from everyone.
I have never suffered with depression although, over the years I have had episodes of loss of confidence and feeling that I look like a bag of sh1t. My mum suffered a bout of depression around the time of her menopause. This time, I feel like I am edging further and further towards crossing that line. I desperately don't want to cross it, but I don't know what to do. I'm sitting at my desk typing this and i'm starting to cry, how on earth can I deal with people like this? My head feels like it's being squeezed and i have a tightness in my chest.
Sorry, just needed to say all that as I have no one else to talk to, my husband is lovely but he doesn't "get" it.
