Peri menopause anxiety? With long term depression?

[dangermouseisace]

I’m doing really well. On meds forever and have a busy life that I manage well.
But oh my god I’ve started to get anxiety out of nowhere. Morning anxiety. Random afternoon anxiety.
Does HRT help? I don’t know what’s going on with my periods as I don’t have them (IUD). I’m 46. Or could I be getting unwell and need more psych meds? I have had several Major Life Events recently.

Sounds just like me before I went on hrt and I'm on prozac x

I'm early 50s and went through a period of waking up feeling anxious. It wasn't about anything, it was purely a physical feeling. I associated it with peri. I'm still going through peri but I'm not getting that symptom anymore. No history of any depression or anything.

Yes absolutely I had this, went withing 4 weeks of starting hrt. Same for a friend.

Ah ok sounds like it might be a peri menopause thing then, I’ll see if I can have a GP chat. Thank you.
