I agree with Flossie there, and Penguin too covers that some of us have been through some pretty horrible and deep physical and emotional times, some get a bit better and then others seem to worsen. As poppytoast writes, our own cycles would be all over the place even if we were not on hrt...add that necessity into the mix and our dreadful and overwhelming dips are 10 times worse.
I am beginning to think of this flatness as almost recovering from the 'shock' of peri and the effects it has on our lives minds and bodies.
I think I am seeing some improvements at some point in my cycle. I will take this flatness as a kind of recovery space from all the scary, can't take it any more times, and hope, in time and with the right settled regime, it too may lift.
But whilst still in peri with all the hormonal haywire it brings, we may still have some bad ups and downs. Like you losing the plot, I try to see the good stuff, the positives and plod on , with the help and support of all on this forum.😍
