Hi, I am new to this forum and self-diagnosed perimenopausal. I am 36 years old and because of this I feel like my GP is completely dismissing my belief that I am going through early menopause, even though I have explained this runs in my family. I actually started to believe I was going completely mad, due to my short temper, irritability, over emotional reactions to EVERYTHING, forgetfulness, tiredness, almost non-existent libido, the complete inability to lose weight, awful tired looking hair and just the general feeling I am turning into some kind of monster. My husband and kids are certainly feeling it which makes me feel even worse. It is all just a little overwhelming. I am so looking forward to not feeling like the only person in the world going through this
