I am the mother of a 19 yr. old son who is a recovering addict. His drug of choice was pain pills but he would use just about anything. He is living in sober living now and will graduate from a 5 month treatment program in about 1 month. I am struggling with codependecy and keeping my marriage peacefull.
Treatments
- Al-Anon Not Working
- The meetings were very small in my area and I feel that it is really time consuming before you get any help.
- Patience Somewhat Helpful
- It seems I can go for quite awhile and be fine with the situation and then I just feel like I can't do it any more.
- Talking Somewhat Helpful
- Sometimes this really helps but it depends on who I talk to
- Writing Too Soon to Tell
- I am just starting.
Close Menopause
I started perimenapause at 39. I take Estradiol, Progesterone cream, Estroven and Meletonin to help me sleep. I think I have experienced about every symptom that there is. I have gotten the night sweats, and most of the hot flashes under control with the meds but still struggle with mood swings, crying, depression at times, and strange, foggy thinking and feelings. I can't believe the havic that menapause can cause on a marriage and at the present time I am struggling to keep mine happy.
Treatments
- Black Cohosh Working / Worked
- Estradiol Working / Worked
- Estroven Working / Worked
- I take it every day.
- Progesterone Cream Working / Worked
- It took 2 to 3 weeks to really see any difference. But it does help with hot flashes, mood and fuzzy thinking.
