Menopause Anxiety

[AnneMarie1966]

Very happy to be in this support group, thx everyone , Menopause is causing this terrible anxiety , fear, panic , very nervous stomach which causes me to get nauseous , afraid to be alone , I just think about something and heart in throat and causes anxiety with hot flashes , I don’t know what to do, does anybody feel this way?

Sounds like your hormones are out of wack. Go to a health food store and ask for a replacement for hormones. Check with your doctor before taking the pills or liquid.

Hello Anne-Marie,

Going through the menopause can trigger all sorts of emotional problems, due to a change in hormones. And it can last well after you’ve gone through the menopause!... I would recommend eating well (lots of fresh food), walking regularly (every day if possible) and meditating (you can find lots of apps, many are free). I also took marine magnesium which was a great help. Personally I managed without HRT as I prefer more natural ways... Good luck 😊x

Hi AnneMarie, I thought I was the only person who is suffering like this. I’ve been off work since December and I’m still no further on as I was then! Horrendous panic and anxiety together with depression. It’s a living nightmare. When I read your post i could relate to all of it. X

I can completely relate. Going through the same thing myself. I can’t even hold down a job - it’s been debilitating. Constantly plagued with this overwhelming sense of dread. Waiting to get in to see a doc. Don’t give up. You will find a way to beat it.
