I’ve always struggled with depression but had it really well managed for several years. I thought I’d cracked the code. But I’m going through perimenopause now and everything feels so… flat. I know it’s not helping that I’ve fallen out of all my good habits that help the depression, but all of those things just feel so much harder than they did a few years ago. I’m so dang tired all the time.
Anyone else relate?
I’m with you all the way.
I’ve done the advice others have mentioned in the other comments over the last couple of years, and it really has helped a lot.
I feel like a walking farmacy though, with all the stuff I take (vitamins, iron, progesterone, estrogen), and I’m still at maybe 50% of the energy and positivity I used to feel when I was 35, but it’s much better than when the peri symptoms really hit me.
