[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're a woman do not underestimate how much change is coming. It hits when the kids are getting older, and ironically more demanding, your parents are aging, people you know are getting divorced or bad medical diagnoses, you start to stall at work, your body changes and on top of it all you start to have increased insomnia, brain fog and anxiety. You may think you're going crazy. You are not. It will get better but things to help include staying active, nurturing your relationships, being kind to yourself (REALLY. My 40s is when I finally started recognizing how much I prioritized doing for everyone before myself), love the kids for who they are.[/quote] Thank you for this. I’m 42, feeling the perimenopause coming on, with 12 and 9 year olds barreling into puberty, and parents aging. So much change happening, plus the pandemic—feel like I’m losing my damn mind![/quote]
