Cranky all the time?
Women's Issues / by tanimaya

...See more Anyone else in the same boat? I have a fortunate life. Plenty to eat. People who love me. Money is ok at the moment. But my hot flashes make me feel like I am dying, and my patience is so very, very thin. The life I worked so hard to get, I am cranky about all the time. I live with a man-child who doesn’t understand me, but who loves and supports me emotionally, despite my peri menopausal symptoms, but who I have to parent all the time. I have a comfortable house, but in a state opposite my political views and lifestyle preferences. I love my work, when it works, but it dried up with COVID and the only help I can get are incompetent kids who don’t do what they say they will do, who then throw temper tantrums when I ask that their actions match their words. I feel like I’m barely holding my shit together, I want either want to check out, explode or give up most of the time. I fantasize about leaving it all behind, but wherever I go, there I am, cranky and hot flashes and all. Anyone else feel similarly?
