I am in perimenopause and I know alot of us experience anxiety. What about crying? I have alot of reasons to; my mom died, my sis is moving 2 thousand miles away, unemployed. But at times it's uncontrollable and I start to well up wherever I am. Anyone else have this? I am already on antdepressants.

There are so many strange things that happen to a woman’s body and head during perio, meno, and post that it’s a wonder we women survive it at all. The crying is a form of depression. During this transitional time in our lives we begin to feel; maybe we were not the best person we could have been, or maybe we were not a good parent to our children (if we had kids), or we should have told the ones we loved that we loved them when we had the chance, but now they’re gone, and other sad and other sad, depressing, crazy thoughts begin to filter through our minds. Our mind play tricks on us at this time, because lets face it, we are not ourselves anymore during this time. Just don’t fall into that way of thinking! Do not let your mind beat you! Keep sad thoughts, sad memories at bay, by keeping old photos put away until you pass it all. Don’t look at old photo books or at old pictures. Try your best not to reminisce too often. Whenever you start to feel a bit of sadness creeping into the vortex of your mind, and before it sucks you down into the abyss of doom, gloom, darkness, and sadness, turn it off by; taking a walk, reading a funny book/story, watching cartoons, taking a bath with your favorite happy music turned all the way up and sing out loud, or do whatever makes you feel happy and good inside and out. Keep sad thoughts, old memories, and any other things that make you feel down and out at bay. And do not watch the news! The news the most depressing thing you can watch or read about at this time in your life. We all seem to turn into “save the world” saints at this time in our lives as well, for some strange reason. The news is depressing enough for normal people. If you lost someone, just keep in mind that they are in a happier, peacefully serene better place. You do whatever makes YOU feel happy again. And always keep in mind that at least you’re alive to feel every wonderfully miserable thing there is to feel in this life. As long as it hurts, you know you’re alive, so embrace it. It will all pass ladies - I promise!
