Not because I hate my family
Not because I’m running away
But because I finally realized…

I actually LIKE myself
I like exploring
I like having nobody ask me what they want for dinner
I like having nobody ask me what they want for dinner
I like having nobody ask me what they want for dinner
I like waking up and having ZERO responsibilities
And sometimes I just need to hear myself think

Then end with:

Maybe this isn’t a midlife crisis
Maybe it’s a midlife awakening

Have you ever taken a solo trip? If you haven’t… what’s stopping you?

Fair warning... if you don't want to hear about hormones or hormone replacement move on but I feel its a disservice to not share this. And no this is nothing I am selling btw.

I started hormone replacement therapy last january. As soon literally AS SOON as I turned 40, I felt this huge shift in my body. Not just with physical symptoms and trust me that list was long and annoying but mentally I was not ok. At one point I told my Dr. I do not feel like myself. Nothing brings me joy. I feel like I know I am in there somewhere but I do not have access to her and if we don't do something I am going to leave my marriage, run away from my family and not come back. I thought I was losing my mind literally.

When I say I saw an IMMEDIATE shift in myself within a week I am not joking. It was like someone had lifted a veil... its like the scene from Hook when the kid grabs peters face and says " oh there you are peter!" That was it. I started to feel like me. My physical symptoms started to go away. The body aches completely gone. I wish I had pushed for this sooner.

Fast forward to the last three months. I felt that feeling coming on again. What felt like seasonal depression but with a bit more aggression, I just couldn't flip the switch. I had no interest in doing anything, I did not want to be here (not suicidal) just had no interest in my life. And I told my dr again this is how I am feeling can we experiment with bumping my dose up and seeing what happens. AGAIN within a week it was like a flip was switched!

This could of been diagnosed as so many things:
Depression
grief
Mid life crisis ( although I think there is some of that too lol)
But friends... its the damn hormones.

If you have been feeling like crap and are middle aged, find a Dr that will listen. One that will be a partner in your health and really let you lead the way with how you feel. Hormones have changed and continue to change my life for the better.

Perimenopause symptoms can start as early as 32
They can last for up to 15 years
It looks different for everyone. I still have yet to have a hot flash for me, it was extreme body aches and lack of movement and mental health

You know your body best, so find a provider who LISTENS and trusts you and if you ever see a dr that mutters " you're too young" RUN.
