Ok so I need a little rant!
been on HRT as I thought im the cause of all the arguments.

6 months in developed internal rage and stopped before I got worse. Been off a couple of weeks now.

Had an outburst of anger and upset as not slept because dog kept me up all night and I am blamed for stopping HRT. Told I’ve changed again. It’s been going on for weeks !! I don’t believe this at all.
im also monitoring symptoms to get assessed for alternative as my responsabilty for my health.
partner told me to go back on HRT and deal with inner rage basically suck it up.
sounds to me I’m an inconvenience with fluctuating hormones. No support there. Or am I unreasonable for stopping.
bear in mind I try to inform of what’s happening but clearly don’t listen.

Yes YABU.

Why didn't you ask for a different HRT?

They're not all the same and it can take far longer than 6 months to get the correct type and dose for you.

If you're having outbursts of anger and upset that are not in your nature, you need to do something about it instead of expecting your DH to suck it up.
