Tell me all about it, dear...

*giggle* *snork* Sorry, but the vision of you in Shoprite was just too funny. That poor old lady! And I forgot my zip code last week too.
But I feel so fortunate that except for the time that they had me on Lupron, my symptoms haven't been that bad. However, when I was on Lupron, I cried at the drop of a hat, and became a bit homicidal. I still haven't bothered to get my .380 back.
Here's hoping that the ebb of Aunt Flo goes smoother, and everyone survives it!

At least it was an old lady you snapped at. She's probably thinking, "Poor dear. I remember that year all too well."

The Dalai Mama! Stevie Nicks: The Menopause Years! Good for you for poking fun at all that misery. I just wallow in it.

I'm sorry that your body is giving you so much trouble! I hope things get better soon.

Im pinning this entry to the fridge as I cannot help but think this will be me before too long, especially as my sister has told me almost identical tales (but in a different accent, obviously!). Poor you. s x

i'm not looking forward to those years myself :/ on the other hand, just because all those poor people in Norway are going through hell, doesn't make your own personal hell any better. go ahead and bitch, grump, piss and moan and don't feel the least bit guilty about it.

I remember it well and I still have hot flashes during the night...sorry to tell you. I did it without any meds or replacement hormones too. It will get better or you will get used to it. It's not fun to hear your mouth saying those mean things and you can't figure out where the ventriloquist is in the room.

I know it probably help to hear this, but ti will get better. I considered cohash myslef but heard you had to be careful with that so I soldiered through. Crying in the middle of the kitchen for no apparent reason became common for a while. An incident at teh DMV still makes me cringe when I remember it. That fuzzy brain feeling while I was stone cold sober was frustrating as I was always at the top of my game, right on point, always crisp and clear of thought and early, not just on time. But, the hot flashes passed fairly quickly for me as did the rest. My Doc thought I was too young (mainly because she was my age but didn't want to be reminded she too was getting older) and I did not miss any of the reproductive monthly fun one bit. Still don't. You will get there, hopefully sooner than later.
