  hi
I haven' t posted in a few years because I've been feeling "OK". I think I may need some help & wondered which help I should source?
I'm on 75mg patches & utrogestan 200mg for 14 days. For the past 6 months I've been feeling really down & extremely irritable. My sleep is either non existent or excessive. I have no energy whatsoever, my desire to do anything at all has vanished. I hate having any kind of conversation with anyone,which is difficult as I work 12 hour shift patterns in quite a demanding job. I literally avoid any human contact wherever possible. I know this is not "normal" & I hate feeling like this.
I'm wondering if it is menopause or if there is something else going on! I'm generally a happy person but I just can't be bothered with anything at all.
I have an appointment with my nurse practitioner tomorrow to discuss.
I know I need help because I'm literally just existing right now. What should I ask for? Am I depressed or is it "normal" menopause?
Thankyou for listening for this long!

Hello Donna Adzie. I am sorry to hear you are feeling so low. I am no expert but with depression not sleeping or feeling like talking to others is common. It is good you are seeing the nurse tomorrow. I do not know if it is depression or not and hopefully the nurse will be able to help. In the meantime, reaching out for support could help. It is horrible to feel so low and not know which way to turn.
