I don’t know what’s the matter with me

[crankyhousewife]

Don’t know if anyone can relate and apologises if this is a bit rambling.

i just feel really bleugh. Had a long chat with the mental health team today and it’s done nothing to lift my mood. I’m not sleeping and the desire to take extra meds just to sleep is there. Lack of sleep isn’t the only problem though; I just can’t seem to pick myself up.

Sorry to read you having a horrible time, what is your age ?

Sorry for late reply, Can I ask if you are post menopause or having HRT As it could be an imbalance of hormones maybe ? Your symptoms sounds as though your menopausal ? This is how I felt and was advised to increase my anti depressants,
but somehow I knew it wasn’t depression as it felt different from previous experiences of my depression.
I then came across an article, which gave a long list of symptoms and bingo I realised I was post menopause and symptoms can and do present even after your menopause.
I’ve now been taking HRT for 2 years and I had to really fight with my GP to be prescribed HRT, once I was prescribed it took about 9 weeks before I felt an improvement.
If im barking up the wrong tree so to speak then I apologise, but many woman can be told it depression at our age and it is actually hormones declining .
