I was saddened to learn of your friend not being counseled on immediate menopause after surgery. It's understandable on her part as I'm sure she was so caught up with everything else but shame on her provider for not explaining it.
Grief is not just for dying; it's for living too. Grief can feel like a longing for something you can't have.
My peri experience started with grief. I went through the grieving process including denial (big time!), ANGER, wishful thinking, and sadness. These emotions were all jumbled together.
Grief came before acceptance ever could and is still a work in progress.
I wish I had your article to help me process all of this when I started in perimenopause. I appreciate your openness and the value that you bring to this discussion.
Thanks for the mention, Jennifer!
