I’ve been in artificial menopause for a month.
Today I had breakfast with friends and OMG I felt like me!
It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this ‘with it’ and healthy and happy.
Even though I was up in the night with a bad back, I still felt sharp and silly and good.
I laughed. I made my friends laugh ( I think), and I didn’t feel like I was having to force conversation, like a bystander, a spare part.
PMDD I think I’ve got you on the run and I’m going to keep on chasing you. I might even wear a scary hat and make funny growly noises so that you keep on going.

Thanks lovely. It might not be wen the real thing comes along, but right now the hot flushes are welcome.

“Artificial menopause” sounds so clinical. Couldn’t we call it something friendlier? “Wonder Mum’s Happy Time”? Something like that?
