Can menopause 'cause' paranoia & make u think everyone is out to get you?
Menopause can affect a woman's mental health and state of mind, and because menopause isn't really talked a whole lot about women going through menopause can feel quite isolated. And really the only way to relate to it is if you are going through or have gone through it yourself.My emotions have been in a constant state of flux and things I used to be sure of I am not so sure of anymore. I feel a simmering rage fester to the top and have to do my best to quell it. I feel depressed, sad, useless,and I am becoming uncomfortably aware of my mortality and my age. Kids are gone except one is left... Was I a good enough mother to them? There are lot's of regrets and judgment on if i spent my life for myself and others in the most meaningful way possible?I don't feel paranoid I feel dismissed. And I am left to wonder how many years am I going to go through this phase of my life going through menopause and having this relatively new set of physical symptoms and changes to deal with.
