“Dammit … It IS Menopause!” Excerpt: Feeling Old, Forgetful & Overwhelmed
Feeling Old, Forgetful and Overwhelmed: Making Mistakes, Experiencing a Diminished Ability to Focus
I made the mistake of looking at my bare arms in the distorted reflection of the car window today. Bad idea: I feel really old. As if that weren’t enough, my four-year-old son keeps getting frustrated with me when I don’t complete sentences because I have forgotten what I was talking about mid-sentence.
Several times lately I have put on the wrong turn signal while driving. Things that used to seem insignificant now seem overwhelming and I just want to go to bed. I frequently forget where I was going, what I was doing, or whom I was calling, all for no apparent reason.
Meditation/Prayer for the day:
Dear God, I feel so frustrated. What’s going on? Please guide me. Give me the ability to embrace “what is” for today.
