I just almost threw a TV aerial at my OH 😳

I’m having some issues with my TV and he was trying to help but I’d been on the phone to a help desk for an hour and knew it was pointless, I just felt so much rage - not at him but just at being so powerless and frustrated.

I get like this when I’m driving if I get stuck behind a slow driver or something - I start swearing and raging and often end up in tears.

I didn’t used to be like this. Is it menopause or am I going mad? I know nobody can say for sure but I’m worried I’ll tell my boss to f-off or something, I just feel so angry at the least little thing 😳🙁

99% chance menopause related. I found my husband intolerable, started HRT and suddenly he was funny and lovely again. Spoiler alert, he wasn't the one who had changed 😁

My mood and in particular rage was so bad that when I booked my initial consultation with a menopause consultant my DH booked a half day from work so he could take me Grin

I suspect my OH would like to take me there and leave me 😂

Perimenopausal rage is awful, you feel completely out of your mind. Im a pretty tightly wound person at the best of times but this was off the scale and I found it really upsetting. HRT has pretty much sorted it for me. I still have the odd bad day but nothing like how I used to be

It’s really scary, I feel like I’m losing my mind 🙁
