Beautiful story. 💜... I share so many similarities.
Bless your heart! This video hits home. I have been going through the same due to menopause. Thank you so much for sharing. Sending you much love from the US!
Thanks Andrea - although I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this too :( A huge hug to the US xxx
Thanks for sharing. My anxiety is through the roof. I’m taking Kalms most days aswell as my regular hrt which I’ve been on for 7yrs. I’m a nitemare passenger driver at the mo 🙈 and my OCD is causing problems at home. Just need some ME time and a proper rest 🙏🏻 xx
OCD is horrendous - I've been there so send you all my thoughts. Try meditation and perhaps some CBT? I also found this to be a fantastic help

Thanks for sharing. I struggled in a similar way. Thoughts and feelings similar. An understanding Dr, HRT and confidence boosting workshops really helped. I had to drum in the good confidence messages through CZcams videos and tony robbins each and every day.
That's really good advice - women are so bad at confidence. Thanks for watching x
This is me 😭😭😭

Thank you for watching, Mary x

My story? Best-case scenario ever. Menopause is as much a non-issue--physically, mentally, & emotionally--as I expected it to be. I decided at around 30 that the only line of demarcation between my reproductive years & menopause would be the presence versus the absence of the monthly blood, nothing else. So all I feel now is free, a reversion of sorts to my pre-menstrual years. I also lost weight more easily after 50; I'm back to my grade 12 weight, take no medications of any kind, eat well (no junk food) & exercise regularly. But in my case, menstruation was barely an issue--not a single cramp since day 1 (11 to 52), no PMS, no sugar cravings or mood swings, nothing other than the monthly flow of blood, often without advance warning.
But I'm also athletic & (happily) have never been pregnant. Honestly, I don't believe any female in the history of womankind has had an easier time of menstruation than I...& my good fortune is repeating itself in menopause--exactly as I expected. Not a single cramp before; not a single hot flash now. I'm not a unicorn here--there are others like me. I'm not a hostage to my hormones, never was. Womanhood in & of itself is a social construct to which I have always been supremely indifferent but this is not a concept easily explained to mortals who take themselves seriously AS women. I've transcended that nonsense in my teens; I'm simply ME, consciously aligned with my Truth at every stage in life.
