You're normal- it's the perimenopause and unfortunately the symptoms you describe can be so frightening and totally floor you! But rest assured, they are fairly typical so you are not seriously ill and you're not mad!
Have a browse about, decide what you want to do and go and discuss with your GP- many of us have problems with our GPs not understanding the symptoms and control of them via HRT and many try and palm you off with AD's which shouldn't be the first line of defence. I hope your GP is one of the ones that understand! Book a double appointment and also ask for a referral to a menopause clinic ( they're not all about HRT ) as you might have to wait a while for this to come through.
Let us know how you get on x
