Serious anger issues for the slightest wee thing
![Huh? ???](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/huh.gif)
Hi Im new to posting but have been reading with interest in the hope I would find comfort or sanity
13 years ago I had the delight of becoming premature menopausal
![Angry >:(](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/angry.gif)
... age 37
Not allowed on HRT (Family History) so given fluoxetine and got on with it
somehow made it for about 11/12 years struggled really hard at times and avoided docs at all costs
Until fairly recently when mood levels got soooooo bad So i went to doctors and was given Gabapentin
![Huh? ???](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/huh.gif)
The night sweats and horrendous flushes continued so went back to doctor again was told to up the dose of gabapentin
the anger issues got worse the flushes got worse and so on!!
I am now on HRT have been for a few weeks so i came off the gabapentin
![Cry :'(](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/cry.gif)
and i think this could be the problem
Severe mood swing and explosive anger that lasts for quite a time Deeply unpleasant for me and my poor long suffering family Even the dogs avoid me

.. there are other issues but would be most grateful if anyone can through me a nugget of hope.... TIA x
