Dear lovely people. I'm 52 , peri meno and started patches last week. I was a tearful emotional wreck by the time I plucked up courage to ask GP for help. All of my symptoms are emotional, feeling overwhelmed, massive anxiety. I'm crying as I type this as I just want to feel better. I'm going back to see GP after I've done patches for a month. Just wondering when I might realistically start to feel better? Thank you.
