It's nice to read some positive stuff.
I was beginning to think that this forum only really catered to women who are having a horrible time and wasn't sure if I should keep reading about all the negative things that can happen during menopause - especially as I've only begun this journey and not experiencing anything seriously awful.
It's very nice to know that it doesn't have to be a horrendous experience and that there are women on this forum who aren't having a terrible time.
Time will tell and I know I might be one of the unluckier women, but I'm not going to assume that will be the case: just too depressing and negative to think like that, isn't it?

It's not a case of being negative Gypsy but more of being truthful. On the whole women who don't experience many problems with menopause don't tend to consult a forum like this so it can get a bit biased.

At least you will be ready should you experience any of the more uncomfy symptoms.

I guess that's fair enough, Taz. But it would be easy to end up focussing only on all the bad things that might happen, as per some of the awful symptoms I've read that others' are experiencing and end up getting worried and depressed about something that might not happen to me.
On the other hand, someone who is suffering badly may not want to read about others who are not having such a hard time. It could sound like the non-sufferer was boasting or gloating. It's a fine line, isn't it?
Hmm, lots to think about here.

It's good to have somewhere to seek reassurance and support and to be able to voice concerns. It's often difficult to talk to those who are close to you.

I never speak with anyone close to me about problems ………..
