To be really scared of menopause

[User112]

In my close extended family, one cousin had awful mental health issues for a few years around menopause time. It settled down after her periods stopped.

Similar situation with another - currently going through shit mental state. Suicidal etc

Another started having tremors in hands around menopause time. It never went away completely, but better now.

All these women are my first cousins (my mom’s sister’s children). Aibu to be really scared of menopause - I’m fast approaching 40

Dreadful. Anxiety, no balance, no idea of car speeds.
I had to roar when they said the levels wern't too bad
My mum went funny and apparently my grandmother was committed to a mental hospital. Thanks Dr peeps

So HRT fixed
