Hello! I'm so glad to have found these forums and to now at least be able to reason with myself that I'm not totally losing the plot or turning into a total raging lunatic! :o
I'm 45 and for the last 2 years I'd say that I've been experiencing some very unfamiliar goings on, such as severe mood swings, weight I can't seem to shift (especially around the tummy) rapid heartbeat moments and also times I just feel in a total sheer panic and jittery for no particular reason. I've read through a few of the posts here and it's good to know that I'm not alone with these awful things that seem to be taking over my body and mind...it's weird but I just seem to be losing the once fairly calm and confident me! I hope there is some positivity in all this and it's good to know we can at least try to help and support eachother. :)

:welcomemm: do browse round. Make notes. Some ladies find that keeping a mood/food/symptom diary useful.
Eat regularly. Keep hydrated. Exercise when you can. Ask away !
