perimenopause

Hi, it's been a while since I posted anything here.  Although, the test shows that I'm not perimenopausal I know I am.  I have alot of the symptoms (anxiety--on and off-, some sadness, this funny feeling that I don't know how to describe comes over my body every once in a while, rarely irritablility).  So far no hot flashes or night sweat (my symptoms started June 2011) and I am 47 years old.  I feel that I lost my self-confidence and at times I feel scared (I don't know why) but that is not so like me.   My periods have fluctuated from 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 31 days.  This is the first month that it has not come and it is 36 days.... I feels like it is going to come.  In fact, I started to spot this morning but last month I spotted before and after my period...I'm a little confused.  Do you still get all the symptoms even if your period doesn't come....help and thanks for your response.
