ok every month i have a meltdown - be it small or large or somewhere in between.  it usually involves some crying and emotional mess. 

then i might get mad at my son for not listening - it builds and i finally lose it.  i yell and then feel soooo guilty.  wait - aren't kids having meltdowns all the time?  why am i feeling so guilty?  ughhhh 

please tell me i'm not the only one feeling this way.  i broke down at work today which i never do cause i'm not happy there right now and then came the anxiety.  thanks klonopin for helping me get through the day.

Hi there Hazelnut,

I know first hand how you feel. As a matter of fact I'm pretty sure that 99% of the women on this site can relate. Have you gone to your Dr. to get your hormone levels checked ? I'm not sure how old you are, but it is very possible for women today to be in perimenopause at an early age. I was 37. No matter your age, when hormones go nuts in a womans body, so do your emotions. Hormones can be wicked little creatures, and having them checked I feel is a good idea. I'm on bioidentical hormone replacement thearpy and it has worked wonders for me. Look up estrogen dominance on your computer and see what you find out. Sounds like exactly what I was going through at a young age. Keep us posted and eat lots of chocolate smilewinkgrin !!!!

Blessings, Michelle

lol!!!! well i'm 42 and i asked my doctor and she said that it wouldn't matter - they don't do anything unless you've missed your period for a year. ugh! what is bioidentical? my gp tested them a year ago and said i wasn't in menopause. idk. hormones are so dangerous though aren't they? my mom hemmoraged from taking estrogen.
