I am menopausing

I finally realised that whatever I am experiencing now is similar to what menopausal women experience!

I can hardly believe that I am going through menopause. its an horrible experience but thank God I know it will come to an end in 6months, what about those women who are undergoing menopause? How long do they suffer for? poor souls

I have mood swings, water retention, often thirsty, insominia, dry skin, frequent loss of memory (absent mindedness?), backaches, lethagy, and I cannot remember what else.

Most shocking info was loss of memory! Because, Ad was asking me about dining somewhere with someone and I totally cannot remember!

After this experience, I am alot more sympathetic towards those who are experiencing menopause now.

Please know that you are NOT at fault for being different, difficult, confused, lost most of the time. It the changes in your body that you are trying to get use to.

But it will be YOUR fault if you vent your anger, frustrations, discomforts on others though.

There are many ways to ease some of these symtops, be it taking lots of supplements, hormonal replacement therapy, alternative medicine like acupuncture or massages. Do it!

Do not take it for granted that your life will be miserable for the rest of your time.

Take charge and WANT to get better, be happier!

It will take ALOT of self control to stay positive, stay focused on being healthy and happy. But you can do it!

(can you tell that i'm on the happy side of my mood? ha ha ha)
