+++1. If it's something simple, like a sluggish thyroid, it can be correctly easily. Try to be open to any modality that helps. If nothing else, it will be easier for your husband to live with you

I've been in meno-hell for awhile now. I've done lots of work around my emotional stuff with a therapist, so I can usually move through the ups & downs. For me, all of the unresolved stuff in my life did a U-turn & hit my upside my head in menopause. I see this happening to a lot of my friends as well.

The physical stuff - not so great. In fact, I'm seeing a naturopath this week because I'm really sensitive to medications. I have dripping wet hot flashes. Night sweats are worse - I don't recall the last time I had a night of complete rest without waking up sweating. And it's winter. Ugh.
