@makeup_by_lynn: This is the part people don’t always see. The crying when you don’t even know how to explain what’s wrong. The exhaustion that sleep doesn’t fix. The anxiety. The brain fog. The fear. Lying in bed with nothing left to give. Staring out of a window wondering where the woman you used to be has gone. Trying to work. Trying to be a mum. A wife. A friend. Trying to smile and carry on while inside you feel like you’re disappearing. There are times I genuinely didn’t recognise myself anymore. And for far too long, I didn’t understand what was happening to me. I wasn’t listened to. I wasn’t taken seriously. I was left trying to survive something I didn’t even have the words for. That is why I show this. Not for sympathy. Not for attention. But because people need to know what perimenopause can really do to a woman. Because somewhere, another woman is sitting in a room crying, terrified by what is happening to her, wondering if she is the only one. She isn’t. This is why I keep speaking. This is why I keep sharing the ugly, painful parts too. And this is why I will keep fighting for women to be heard, supported and taken seriously. We need to stop whispering about perimenopause. People need to know the truth!! 🫶🏼 #perimenopause #perimenopausehealth #womenshealthmatters #mentalhealthtiktok #hormonehealth
