What in the fresh hormonal hell is this 😂😳 the P word has been popping up in a lot of conversations lately…. And it’s something I have fell into a rabbit hole to learn about after not feeling ‘quite like myself’ for some time now! So I might start banging on about it, and hopefully help a few people feel a little bit better! So here’s a few things I’ve learnt so far !
•You are highly likely to pick up more injuries, niggles, tendinitis… and they will hang around for bloody ages
•Hello mood swings 👋🏻 some days your rage over something minute is going to make you want to start punching people, the next day you’ll be crying over a dead bird on the side of the road
•Your blood sugars are going to make you act like a crazy person that’s never had sugar before, you will have ZERO control at the after lunch lull
•That childhood trauma you’ve been pushing down for 40 years, that’s going to run at you full speed and you will reevaluate the role everyone has in your life. Snip, snip, snip… by friends !
•Your sleep is going to completely change … literally overnight’ - disrupted sleep, too hot, exhausted all day, wired by night
•Your body is going to turn its back on you, get ready to welcome weight gain for no reason - what used to work has totally left the building
•Brain fog… I’m pretty sure I used to be able to follow instructions and finish a sentence… 😂😂 not anymore! Goodbye brain 🧠
I could literally go on and on !!! I have dialled in my routine a bit now, but I will do a separate post as I went on a bit there 😂 But I have found a few things that help.
Let me know if this helps anyone feel slightly less alone !! 🆘️
