[quote=Anonymous]Your emotions and feelings of hypervigilance and vulnerability are concerning, OP, but at least it's good you're noticing them. Some of my female friends are older than you, and while some rely on their husbands to take care of vehicles, a lot of them don't bat an eye at car maintenance and manage it all themselves. They have not reported feeling more anxious or vulnerable around such chores. Perimenopause has made some of them more moody in general, prone to frustration, etc, but it doesn't translate into feeling unable to do things. I have the paralyzing anxiety :-) I'm 45 and have always had it, though. I suggest you get yourself bloodwork to determine if your thyroid is working as it should, if you've not anemic, etc. Rule out physical issues first, and then if everything is normal, talk to a psychologist.[/quote]
