As if hot flashes and night sweats weren't enough, now we have to worry about our mental health, too?! 🤯 Short answer: yes. Mental health’s important no matter your age, but it can take a real beating during menopause. shopstateof
May was Mental Health Awareness Month in the US, so it was pretty timely that at the start of the month I’d come to the realization that I needed some pharmaceutical help to deal with the anxiety that had become moreover the past few months. I’m about five years into perimenopause and up until recently, I’ve been successfully managing my ever-changing symptoms – night sweats, sleep problems, irritability, vaginal dryness, acne, etc. – without medical intervention.
After three or four months of spending at least half of the month feeling like an anxiety-riddled, panic-fraught, “the sky is falling”, Eeyore, I reconciled that when it comes to managing my anxiety, at this stage of my journey I NEED HELP. Of course, the natural stuff is good and the modifications to my diet and lifestyle have all been for the better. I’ll continue to nurture those practices because apart from life and death, very few things are binary. That includes my approach to managing my mental health and general well-being.
