That's menopause. It's not fun, but it will pass and you are certainly not alone here in Power Surge. We're all there, doing that or been there, done that. So, let it all hang out and know we'll be there to help you pick up the pieces.
I even hated my new cat today because I want my other cat back that died so young 
(I don't now , but I did . )You just get thinking crazy sometimes who knows why. This isn't my best day either Linda. But it goes away. Sure is a bummer while you feel this way though.You aren't alone , far from it hugs, jeanne
I just came on board for the very reason, you just described!! Like jeanne said......it's normal!About an hour ago....I threw a tantrum:oI haven't done that in months!! It's HOT as hell outside....hubby is home on vacation...I'm tired...I'm hurting....I'm cranky.....and hubby is leaving evidence of his existance everywhere he goes!! A shoe, here....paper, there....spilled pasta....dirty sink, etc., etc. Sooooooo...one thing led to another....and *WHAMO* I had a Hot Flash....followed by RAGE!!Next thing I kew I threw a towel at him, (thank God it wasn't something else in my hand)....yelled at my son....said several choice words....then started to shake!!That's when I realized what had happed!! At that moment I must have HATED everything and anyone that existed:angry:Poor hubby and son...totally:confused:Like I said, I hadn't done that in months!! In the past I use to feel so guilty and apologize for days...NOW, I understand what's happening!! Thank God, I also have an understanding hubby;)
*Dearest*....thank you, so much for your post to Linda!!It really hit home and it was what I needed to hear at this time!! I'm actually getting calm as I'm typing....thank God for this site!!I needed that little reminder, that it's MENOPAUSE!!
(((((((Hugs to y'all)))))))) Nancy

Still, isn't it incredible that here on these boards, I feel just the opposite, with it's soothing effect like a balming lotion after a shower, you calm me down, make me think, make me laugh and suddently my mood swings back to normal (well, almost normal) :wink:
Snowbaby: Don't feel bad, you deserve to get it all out of your system once in a while, but tell me, what's your secret the way you automatically cheer us all up? . God bless you, I hope you always have this energy (and I can tell it's not just virtual). Like you said, just sitting here typing, it's a therapy in itself.
C'mon Snowy, that's enough already, running round power surge stark naked :wink: :wink: Eh, pity this thing doesn't come with a digital camera!!!
Kisses, and a happy weekend to all you chicks!!!Barbara.
Lessee......what's my secret, on the way I automatically cheer everyone up......the only thing I can think of is, YOU GUY'S!! You, bring the *ahem* BEST out in me:biggrin:I always was a kidder....but lost it somewhere between..."giving birth to my genius son and menopause" :confused: However, since coming on board....It's returned FULL FORCE:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
*Sheesh* Dunno, about standing stark naked in front of a camera for the whole world ta see:o People might talk:cheesy: Then again...they do anyhoo!! LOL!

(((((((((Hugs to ya from a Canadian Chick)))))))))) Nancy (aka Snowy)
Thanks! I've been reading ALOT this afternoon. It's all so interesting and I'm already seeing things in a better light. I have moved away from friends and family so this is cheering me up. I think the women here are so open. No one told me these things before and I was in pure denial !!
The women here are willing to admit they are going through a confusing time and that everyone is different. You all are just giving and taking whatever touches you. I love it. This is a special place:smile:

Hanging in there, reread all this and I did crack a smile:) Think I broke my face though.
Hope you are having a better week.
I don't think you "hate" so much as you just might get angry at people. Anger can make you feel like you hate someone. But you may just be placing the anger on certain people that get on your nerves or you don't particularly like, or even on someone you love. And don't we have a right to feel angry at what we're going through? I do alot of apologizing these days.
Take care, hang in there, we'll get through it.Hugs, Chris
Dream Deferred Langston Hughes What happens to a dream deferred?Does it dry upLike a raisin in the sun?Or fester like a sore--And then run?Does it stink like rotten meat?Or crust and sugar over--like a syrupy sweet?Maybe it just sagslike a heavy load.Or does it explode?
I am shocked and amazed at the similiarity with what some of you are experiencing and me. I have tried to suppress these feelings a while. I think I am ready to tell everyone. Maybe if I tell more women what I am going thru, it might get passed down to someone who needs to know she isn't the only one. Maybe my mother's generation didn't have a chance to tell this story, my mom had a surgical menopause and is still on Premarin. Maybe they did not have the options or connections, I don't know. What I do know is I will not be silent any longer.
