[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you deal with it? Between my work, dh's work, teens who are moody and about to start the college process X 2 I feel like I am a stress sponge, constantly have something aggravating me, that I need to address. My vacation will be visiting my parents and honestly it feels like a chore as well. I love them but it won't be relaxing or something I am doing for myself. Not sure how I keep going like this all of next year.[/quote] Hi OP. I certainly empathize. I don’t know how old you are but if you are between the ages of 40 and 50, you might be starting perimenopause or actively entering menopause, The hormone fluctuations are terrible, and cause a lot of anxiety and extreme stress for me. I have been relatively stressed lately with a lot of family responsibilities and taking care of my mom. But I have always managed before now to keep a good perspective up until recently. My period has stopped coming regularly, and my doctor said that I am entering menopause. My moods and stress level have been extreme. There are times when I don’t recognize myself when I am feeling angry for no reason, I did not realize that menopause would cause such extreme mood swings, 10 times worse than PMS , if you happen to think of it, you can request hormone test at your primary care provider or gynecologist to check and see if you are entering menopause. There are treatments available to help with the moodiness and anxiety. I wish you all the best. I know that our modern life is not easy . [/quote]
