    • Good Day today

      Mood January 16, 2009 7:34pm

      It's a good day today. I don't really know why. But I don't think I have to know either.

      Mood December 22, 2008 2:49pm

      Just another update. I'm feeling OK today, not great. Somehow, I'm a little choked up and touchy. I have some nice friends at work, but my …

      I'm feeling pretty good today. Funny how that seems to follow days of not feeling that great. The peri-menopausal years seem to do a …

    • Too much to be done !!!

      Mood May 9, 2008 1:28pm

      My skin is still meandering, back and forth. Still itchy behind my ears, sometimes on my lower right leg. I really don't get it, what has changed …

    • Little Love

      From JudyD3 April 11

      Hi PClaire... just thought I'd stop by and say hello. I hope you are having a good weekend. Love, Judy

    • Ray of Sunshine

      From Dorothyofoz March 25

      Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Thanks for the St. Patricks Day wishes. I hope you had a good one. It's getting warmer here in FL which means the hot flashes get worse. Hope you're doing well. Dorothy

      From JudyD3 March 21

      Hugs and sunshine coming your way.. hope you are having a good weekend. Take care. Love, Judy

    • Hug

      From JudyD3 March 19

      I imagine it must be difficult to work for your boss's boss now. Do you know the reason why your boss was fired? No, I did not get to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, other than to wish everyone good Irish blessings. Take good care and hope you have a wonderful weekend. Love, Judy

    • Moment of Peace

      From Dorothyofoz March 11

      Hi Claire, I was born in Southie and lived there until my mother and I moved to Florida when I was 19. I've been here ever since. Even when I joined the Air Force, I got stationed 85 miles away from Kissimmee which is where I lived. So much for seeing the world. Hope you're having a good day. Take care. Dorothy

    • Close Eczema

      I started having small eczema spots on my hands in my early 20s. They finally went away and I did not have any noticeable skin problems for a while. Then, in my 30s I started having occasional eczema spots, usually in late winter. Now I'm in my 40s and in the last 5 years, I've had stronger eczema, usually for a short period of time, but distributed over my whole body.

      Treatments

      Triamcinolone Topical Somewhat Helpful
      It helps the itching for a little while, not sure if it helps the healing
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (David Burns' Mood Therapy book), but I think this forum is helping me too.
      Evening Primrose Oil Not Working
      I started taking 3000 mg daily of evening primrose oil gelcaps 3 weeks ago. May skin has not gotten better or worse.
    • Close Cataracts

      I had cataract surgery on both eyes last year (at 47 ys old). I still cannot believe how much better I can see. I opted for monovision and I really like it.

      Treatments

      Surgery Working / Worked
      It's amazing, the colors, the sharpness.
    • Open Anxiety

      I'm not sure, but I think I've had some anxiety/depression for a long time, but it really came out when I was in my 30s. Now in my 40s, it's not much better. I wish I could just be happy-go-lucky, but I guess I'll have to make do with what I am.

    • Open Menopause

      I've probably had my periods start changing a little for about 10 years now (I'm 48). When I was 45, in the winter, I started having longer gaps, then in the summer it would normalize again. This year for the first time in the summer I am having hotflashes. We'll see what's next... or not !

    • Open Time Management

      I have always had trouble managing my time. Mainly I want to take on too many things and hate having to choose. Then I run out of time and panic, because so much else still needs to be done. I hate the feeling that time encroaches on my freedom to do everything I want to do. I hope to find a better way.
