Period rage!

Every single time I get my period lately I get so mf irritated and angry at literally every little thing 😩 I feel so mean and I hate it so much. It makes me want to scream and run away every time. Idk how to cope. Does anyone else get like this?? Or am I insane?

Hormone Rage

Anyone else’s hormones making them want nothing to do with their partner? Literally anything he says or does makes me go crazy 😵‍💫

Is any mom on here feeling "a certain kind of way?!"

Eh, I'm almost sure that it's hormonal, as I'm 41 and dealing with perimenopause, but I'm feeling a bit frisky. I've noticed for years that I especially get like this during that time, but oh the hell well I guess. Can anyone else relate? And, has anyone else not been with a female, but has watched lesbians going at it and fantasizes about doing the same?! By the way, I'm in Arkansas...

PP night sweats

Perimenopause

Hi everyone I’m new to this page. I’m currently menopausal and I’m 42. I feel like I’m actually going insane as I’m permanently forgetting everything especially conversations with people it’s terribly embarrassing and I’m so low. I forget words and have to replace them with another word.I feel like I’m in a trance most of the time as well. I’m having really bad anxiety and panic attacks. Other symptoms are extremely crawling skin,hair loss,dry mouth and eyes and the tiredness and fatigue are horrific Iv been having naps during the day. Can anybody relate at all especially the forgetfulness/words. There’s Alzheimer’sin my family and I’m panicking it’s that. If anybody can try and reassure me I would be so grateful. Iv just had the mirena coil fitted and I’m on HRT gel.

Thanks

Period

Is this an awful thing to say?

I’m going through post partum anxiety and my partner hasn’t been great at all. I have been crying to him about supporting me more and he said “I can’t deal with this I better end things with you now as you’ll be even worse when you hit menopause” he said this in a serious tone. I’m 27 and I asked him why would he say that and he said he has to think of his future too
