Hormone Rage

Anyone else’s hormones making them want nothing to do with their partner? Literally anything he says or does makes me go crazy 😵‍💫

Is any mom on here feeling "a certain kind of way?!"

Eh, I'm almost sure that it's hormonal, as I'm 41 and dealing with perimenopause, but I'm feeling a bit frisky. I've noticed for years that I especially get like this during that time, but oh the hell well I guess. Can anyone else relate? And, has anyone else not been with a female, but has watched lesbians going at it and fantasizes about doing the same?! By the way, I'm in Arkansas...

PP night sweats

Perimenopause

Hi everyone I’m new to this page. I’m currently menopausal and I’m 42. I feel like I’m actually going insane as I’m permanently forgetting everything especially conversations with people it’s terribly embarrassing and I’m so low. I forget words and have to replace them with another word.I feel like I’m in a trance most of the time as well. I’m having really bad anxiety and panic attacks. Other symptoms are extremely crawling skin,hair loss,dry mouth and eyes and the tiredness and fatigue are horrific Iv been having naps during the day. Can anybody relate at all especially the forgetfulness/words. There’s Alzheimer’sin my family and I’m panicking it’s that. If anybody can try and reassure me I would be so grateful. Iv just had the mirena coil fitted and I’m on HRT gel.

Thanks

Period

Anyone else not got their period back yet?

Slow going towards sobriety

Im working on sobriety on multiple fronts. Im at 5 weeks for alcohol, 3 weeks for weed and two weeks for nicotine. Most of my day I feel slow, irritable and angry. Trying to read my books and leave others alone. Hoping this gets easier to bear

Is this an awful thing to say?

I’m going through post partum anxiety and my partner hasn’t been great at all. I have been crying to him about supporting me more and he said “I can’t deal with this I better end things with you now as you’ll be even worse when you hit menopause” he said this in a serious tone. I’m 27 and I asked him why would he say that and he said he has to think of his future too

When did everyone’s periods regulate?

How long did it take for your periods to be regular again?

Period 😣

I just got my period 7 months pp , does this mean my supply is going to drop?

Consistently late periods from stress?

I’m 28 but I feel like I’m experiencing peri-menopause or something. Every month my cycle gets longer and longer and I’m scared literally every month I’m pregnant only to get my period a few days later. Is anyone else constantly stressed the heck out to the point that they stopped getting a regular period? Is that a thing?? I’m losing my mind. It’s day 37.

Anyone near Pittsburgh?

Retired Texas native, new to Pennsylvania, and looking forward to making new friends.

My kids are grown and don't talk to me but....

I got the cutest puppy who gets all my love and attention. It's sad because my kids and grand kids should be getting that love. I wish my kids and grandkids could be in the picture with more love to go around. Truffles is the best dog! What kind of pet do you have and what's their name?

How do you make friends when you no longer have little kids?

I moved into my house in Friendswood on 10/31/19. Got my middle schoolers enrolled, got my house set up, got our doctors established and then the world went on house arrest. For years. We moved here from northern Virginia after my husband was offered a job at nasa. I left everything I knew and loved, all the ppl I loved, my hobbies, my life, and when the world opened back up, my kids were in high school and I knew no one at all. This is a conservative area, but only in so much that my appearance has kept my older neighbors snub me and I don't have little kids to meet others the old way. Can someone please tell me how to find one other outcast in this area that I can actually have a conversation with or leave the house to go see? My dog is tired of me talking at her. I am at the point of asking for a divorce because I can no longer stand the endless days of nothing anymore and my husband didn't anything wrong except accept his dream job. Any suggestions?
