Going Mad

[jools70]

Menopause for 5 years, seen two specialist and gp currently on 4 pumps of gel, and 100 utrogestan.
nothing works, I hate the person I’ve become. Never rowed with DP, now that’s all I do. Accuse him of cheating because I’ve lost all my confidence. He is amazing and he has been so supportive but it’s getting to breaking point
I hear voices and constantly paranoid.
i’m no longer calm or patient and just angry.
Things I loved and enjoyed I no longer do.
How can hormones do all this.
It’s ruining my life.
i’m 53 love my DP still fancy him and we still have a good sex life but I constantly think he can’t be happy with me. He’s told me he hasn’t and never will cheat on me. Why do I think this. I have no reason to distrust him.
i’m so sad

Hi @Fishergirl
I ended up on 100 Everol Conti Patch, withe two progesterone tablets per day.l
I have to say this is working for me but it took around 6 months for me to begin feeling more like me.
I also find that using the right skincare for a 56 year old woman, watching you tube videos on how to apply makeup for older skin an getting hair extensions helped me, I know that sounds stupid but when you look better as well as feeling better it makes you and the rest of the world more bearable.
Hope this helps.

I know how terrible it can be. I went straight to full menopause no inbetween for me and it took over my life and my poor suffering hubbies life.
He has been a godsend, so understanding but we also had tough times.
Always here if you want to chat
