Menopause Has anyone else been around their moms when they've gone through menopause? My mom has been extremely moody…

Yes, right now. Currently. It's a complete nightmare. It's kind of reminding me of being a teenager. She's either mean and irritated or really emotional and crying.

Hugs to you!

I'm glad I'm not alone. She just texted me out of no where that she thinks it will be inconvenient to watch dd over night Wednesday and I said that was fine. Then she went off the deep end that no one does anything for her and she does so much for everyone else ?. My dads like "it's just hormones!"

My mother had an awful time with menopause and it took forever years and years and she is 69 and still gets hot flashes. Menopause is a batch for real. I think it's like pregnancy or teenage hormones times 100.

Yeah my mom called me earlier crying because I have been "distant" from her and she hasn't seen me or Andon in "a really long time." We saw her Thursday and he spent the night with her 2 nights last week. Lol. It's wild. I try to be understanding but sheesh. ?

Yeah don't get sucked into the outbursts, when my mom is obviously hormonal I just leave her alone. But the first few times I was really caught off guard she had a whole temper tantrum one day me and my day were like ?

My mom was on the hormone replacements since she bad her hysterectomy. So we didn't have to deal with it too much.

A coworker of mine just went through induced menopause- her obgyn gave her a shot that completely blocks estrogen so it was an overnight switch. She called into work several times because she could not stop crying (this woman doesn't cry!), she had terrible hot flashes, everything annoyed her. We all knew what was going on and fortunately for her it was only 3 months, but it was hard.
