There are different levels at which different women are affected. From barely noticable to your life changing quite drastically from what it has been in the past. OK, change is one thing but drastically is another. I don't even recognize myself anymore, not just physically but I'm just not me anymore! I am older & wiser & loving that, but I don't like how I've lost interest in things I used to love, energy level - gone, just when I figured out how to get organized & the importance of it, I have to force myself do those things. I was happily doing these things when suddenly I completely stopped. I used to be an excellent house keeper, filed important documents, paid bills, took care of things properly, even took care of myself. Now, these things that used to be simply a daily part of life have become like a mountain to climb, a high one. This just isn't me or if it is now I am very unhappy with it & I try hard to change it but can't seem to. I am so miserable & frustrated. I've always been a happy person & I still want to be. I've just turned 53 & I have 2 grown children & 4 beautiful grandchildren & I want to make wonderful memories with them. Also the man in my life for the past 20 years is sudenly mistified that sex is a thing of the past. Not interested, it is not the same-it just isn't, which makes me sad but it is like you are not in control anymore. It is bigger than me & I can't seem to overcome it no matter how hard I try. I keep hoping it will pass in time.
