I'm sooo tired

i am def menopausal (or peri). I am soooo tired. I dont know why but the last week I have felt so tired I can hardly keep my eyes open. I am sleeping OK (surprisingly as I had been waking in the night previously). Managing to function and do what i need to do. I know its normal and i'm lucky as I dont suffer sweats too badly or anything too hectic. Anxiety is a bit wobbly and forgetfulness is a biggie. Migraines being held at bay with tripta something.

Just wanted to come and tell someone how tired I feel. thats all.
I know I should be doing more exercise but I just cant even summon up the energy to do anything more than walk the dog. Sad

Well, in walking the dog, you are getting a lot more exercise than I am.

Interesting thread about the menopause here

humble that is me! I've just had a week off with the DC and we've done hardly anything and I've slept at every opportunity.

I know I'm putting on weight, I know I need to exercise and stop eating crap, but I too am so tired....

tis a vicious circle. i have had a good walk the last two days and struggling not to eat everything in sight. still tired but functional. bit grumpy but am trying to turn the tide. off to bed. :)
