Mental health is still pushed under the carpet
I have both clinical and organic depression: the 1st caused by situations that I can't alter and which bother me [My Mum] and organic when the brain doesn't get enough 'happy' chemical. Fortunately appropriate medication keeps me, generally, well. It did however take over 3 years to get anywhere near stable as most ADs made me so very very sick
.
I don't know how much menopause would have impacted on my mental health as I was taking medication since the 1980s.
