It really sucks Fortysomething. I can relate totally to the up and down. I was fine a few weeks ago, out running and feeling 'me', now I am a shivery, scared whippet, fearful, mind racing, sleep disturbed. Hard to keep it together. Be careful with trying any herbal/ vitamin fix. There is non I think and they can mess with your liver. I understand that you just want that magic bullet to get the old you back. You are not alone with this and it is unfortunately totally normal. If HRT was the solution for most women I would give it another go myself but my first attempt was awful anxiety wise so I am cautious to try again. X
