Tnx.  Fortunately by mid-day the feeling of depression is gone. 

Since I found out about Mum's narcissism I've wanted to talk to Dad about issues, many of which he was blamed for.  He was difficult, he had his own agenda ...... however.

Reading all the problems that ladies have in peri-menopause, I do wonder whether some of my symptoms may have been due to decreasing oestrogen.  However, as I was already 'used' to those symptoms and as I had been, long-term, taking AD and anti-anxiety medications whether some were suppressed.  It would never have crossed my mind that the anxiety in particular had been made worse at that time.

I do advocate certain suggestions which have helped me and my responses look flippant on the page, however: I do not mean it to be so.  My anxiety journey was at times horrific and depression took over to the point that I was unable to get out of bed.   

Little steps!

This time of year gets me down for many reasons although I love the Autumnal colours so cling to those.  I don't want to get out of bed: once I'm washed, dressed and eaten breakfast my brain improves.  Until the next morning  .  It's the "C" word that gets me down even though we no longer travel to visit relatives.  I suppose it's due to DH not 'getting on' with choosing stuff for his brother/wife  whereas me, I'm bought and wrapped by end of August

If I wasn't taking ADs regularly I would howl  when ever we drive past a lay-by where we stopped for my old dog ........ my heart thumps.  When we go on various journeys my brain 'goes back'  .  When I remember how my little cat was shut into the lounge when we were at family [2 hours away] for our silver wedding anniversary, she had to Pee in the hearth I sob internally  . .......... yet thinking about my parents' property never bothers me.
