For me anxiety is the main symptom , it has completely paralyzed my life . I don’t know what I would do without the Lord Jesus . Trusting in him ❤️
Hi Patricia, my name is Patricia as well. Other than our name we have 2 more things in common. Anxiety as the main symptom of perimenopause and our faith in the lord. I know that your comment is from many months ago but I would love to know how you are doing with the anxiety and if you're doing better what did you do or take to improve it? I know that the Lord is going to put the right person in my path so that I can get the answers I need to get me through this. Prayer and my faith is what keeps me going. I'm going on 2 years with this horrible anxiety amongst other symptoms. I need to be as close to the person I used to be. I pray you have gotten better and that you can continue your life anxiety free 🙏. I hope to hear from you.
Me too! I am a shell of my former self. It's truly a nightmare.
@@rubythecraftgirl7097 hi Patricia , I’m sorry it took me so long to respond , I just saw your message. Thank God I’m doing much better , I’m working , I’m driving , something I never thought I would do again because of how bad it was . I went to see a holistic doctor . He gave me magnesium, vitamin D with vitamin K , and other medications which I don’t remember. He did gave me medication for anxiety and depression, all natural . I did a lot of praying , reading my Bible and memorizing scripture. I’m not saying it’s all gone , I have my moments but not as bad . I hope you are doing well and much better . I wish you the best . God bless you ❤️
@@rubythecraftgirl7097 exercise ! It will help tremendously. Also one thing the doctor told me to stop eating dairy , and food or snacks that are using coloring . I hope I made myself clear . Just make sure you check with your doctor before trying any of this .
@@rubythecraftgirl7097 and of course check your hormones !
♥ I can definitely relate to a lot of what these ladies have said. Thank you for the video ♥
You're so welcome! We're glad it spoke to you x
I have been suffering from sounds in my ears and the anxiety is really really bad and I forget things, it is truly scary I hate being home alone
Me too...and I am scared of being alone
Me too I feel lost invisibile and miserabile most of the day and find many things overwhelming, memory loss and sometimes speech imparment I used to work as an interpreter but I could not do it now as I have lost my confidence.I am consideing going on HRT with all pros and cons as I want to go back to a normal life
This is all me in a nutshell. Ugh I feel like my life has been hijacked
Brain fog is horrible....worse thing for me is the total lack of support from family and friends....
I'm in peri-menopause and I am shouting this ish from the rooftops. I'm talking to EVERYBODY about it, because most people pretend that it doesn't exist.
Or they say they breezed through it. We are expected to be on top of things. Sometimes there is no easy answer
The state of menopause treatment is a disgrace. Treatment is a must for women's heart, brain and bone health. ❤️❤️ You guys are champions for raising awareness x
Thank you so much Maria! xx
Heart felt stories from these brave women sharing their personal experience - thank you to you at Pausitivity and your ladies for choosing to raise awareness....
Thank you so much!
this video has been a god send thankyou x
Don’t forget men go through it with you girls even if it’s just on tiptoes!
This is lovely-could you make a version without the soundtrack. It is extremely distracting when one is trying to decipher the accents. Audio hypersensitivity is past of my profile.
When I got my period, there was so much support and information, from my friends, sex education. There was a feeling of optimism and excitement. When menopause hit, I reached out to various women. They would change the subject or say they breezed through it. My mom was really supportive and I was able to open up. As far as the media goes, many are pushing hrt. It may be the answer but there us a psychological dimension that gets ignored.
To everyone on here, I encourage you to stay strong. I too am going through perimenopause and it is absolutely horrible at times. However, this is a temporary faze we are experiencing. So hang in there and know that we have a bright future ahead of us. ❤
