Joyless alcohol feeling!

Had a friend round last night for wine and cheese. She brought some lovely rose wine round and we had two bottles. All it did was make me feel sad and low! Usually the first sip of wine makes me feel great. Anyone else not enjoying alcohol now they are in peri menopause?

Same here. 7 years post menopause and alcohol still dosent agree with me, so apart from a rare glass of fizz, I don't bother anymore. No point if its not hitting the spot! Don't despair though, other women I know have come out the other side of the no alcohol phase. Bottoms up!

I’m 44 and drinking alcohol is off the menu for the time being. The cost/benefit ratio is not really worth it. I don’t get the same kick and suffer from anxiety and feeling low the day after. I’m hoping to go back to it at some point.
