@lifestyle_and_smiles: Going through the perimenopause at times symptoms can completely take over who we are and you can feel like you can’t cope. It becomes too much to do badic tasks let alone your job. Brain fog can become so bad that you can no longer preform at work! Don’t suffer … get the help you need 💗 #perimenopause #perimenopausehealth #brainfog #dontsufferinsilence #perimenopausesupport #perimenopausesymptoms
I've been working for 20 yrs and when I started going through perimenopause I had to stop working. I had severe anxiety, depression, and mood swings. I couldn't even barley leave my house. I have neverrrrr been like that

I refused to let perimenopause drag on for years & destroy my career. Had elective hysterectomy, instant menopause, HRT sorted, life now back on track. £10k well spent in my book.

I have been off work for 6 months with horrendous anxiety. I have so many perimenopause symptoms but as I’m only 38 no one will even think it’s perimenopause.

It’s true. I’m in the early stages of perimenopause. I am definitely not the same person that I used to be. I need more rest. I need more time for reflection. I don’t have the energy that I used to. I wish I could bump down to part-time. I still want to work and contribute to society, but my body is going through changes that are affecting my life. I never thought it was going to be like this. Why does no one ever talk to women about these things? It blindsided me and I didn’t know what was going on until I went on TikTok of all things.

I went on a job interview a few months ago and lost a word I used to know. Don’t know if that was the reason I didn’t get an offer. But killed my confidence 😔
