Who here is in their menopausal stage? I've been waking up drenched in sweat almost every night. Are these night sweats normal, and how long can I expect them to last? I'm exhausted from a lack of good sleep! Also, my mood swings are pretty bad. One minute I'm fine, the next I'm irritable or tearful. Is this common during menopause as well? These symptoms are wild - it sure is a challenge to manage them with the kind of job we have where we have to be sharp and presentable at all times. Any tips on how to manage them ?

Welcome to the worst part of womanhood in my humble opinion. I know the grass is greener, but I'd take being in pain every month + have great energy and youthful skin over this any day. You go through so much and there's no payoff. Anyway, rant aside, what really helped me with my hot flashes was to keep my bedroom cool, around 65°F. Also
avoid triggers like spicy foods, caffeine, and alcohol.... I limit my coffee intake to once a day and it makes a drastic change for me.

Just taking the opportunity to get current. Sober 3 years and 10 months. This past couple weeks have been stressful and my mind slipped into fantasizing about my drug of choice.

Although I have neglected my morning practice this week, I'm practicing self compassion with positive self talk.

There’s no excuse that by the age of 25 you have never tried therapy. I’m speaking directly to the demographic in this group who I’m sure over 95% of people in here are earning 6 figures. Key word: TRY. I understand it’s not for everyone but to have never even attempted seeking therapy is a injustice to yourself and the people around you.
