Hi Elsiebear
from me too and sorry to hear about your cat.
What were your periods doing in the year leading up to starting HRT,what type and dose are you on and for how long? Many women find that the physical symptoms improve first but the emotional ones take longer.
As well as life events and issues, anxiety can be due to the hormonal surges that happen at this time and which HRT should help to control. It can also be caused in some women by some synthetic progestogens and, also low oestrogen so don't despair yet - you might need to tweak your dose or change the type you are using. If we can help we can
