Hi,
I'm having a hard time of it lately with this menopause stuff. Right now it's mainly my anxiety, panic, IBS and gastric problems, not to mention my weird mood swings. Today I am suffering with the anxiety borderline panic attack feeling all day. I have emetaphobia too and last night David Letterman was off with stomach flu and that set me off in a panic, I know it's ridiculous but I can't help it, then my sister in law today said she's had it and that panicked me even more, now I'm on the everything comes in threes and feel so anxious about it all right now. I know it's irrational but the menopause has definitely brought it back twice has hard as it used to be. I absolutely dread night times, well at least the going to bed part, before I was married ten years ago, I never slept in a bed, always on a sofa bed in the living room, because I hated bedrooms, something horrible always happens at night with regards to illnesses and so I felt safer if I never actually got to the bedroom part. Again totally irrational but at least I do go to bed now, even though I can't sleep too well. Sorry for moaning, just feeling irrationally panicky today.
