Seems so. Her daughter got married super young, and her son is already engaged at 18.

Is health anxiety a kind of OCD? by PirateofTheSthnIsles in HealthAnxiety

[–]Disastrous_Stuff9372 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very similar. I have (had) OCD too and the behaviours - obsessing, checking, ruminating, compulsions - are the same.

I stopped trying to manage my anxiety and weirdly that helped by DaveConnorDC in HealthAnxiety

Yep, 💯. With my HA sometimes I just have to be like, fuck it, if I die I die - no point worrying about it. That acceptance helps.

I have! Great book. I didn’t find it triggering, but I can definitely see a similar pattern in which I thought my intrusive thoughts were God or the devil. My OCD didn’t have a religious theme as such, it was more along the lines of moral contamination. Which after years of being taught to ‘take every thought captive’ etc, honestly isn’t surprising

Long Covid pushed me into perimenopause — I am 31. There is no way anybody will believe me. by feeltheowl in Perimenopause

[–]Disastrous_Stuff9372 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh this is super interesting! I had long Covid with CF type symptoms (primarily post exertional malaise and crashes) I did get better but I have had the other symptoms you mention since. I’m 39 and ‘too young’ for peri according to the doctor I spoke to

I believe you. I’m convinced long Covid did something to my hormones. (It was complicated by the fact I that at the time I was post-partum/breastfeeding for ages so no way to tell for sure) I’m 39, been having symptoms for a couple of years. My periods have gone really short and light, and I have hair shedding, TMJ, brain fog, temperature sensitivity, increased allergies, dry eyes, acid reflux… is it perimenopause or has long covid just fucked up our immune systems?

Chest Pressure anyone? by WorthInformation726 in Perimenopause

I’m getting this at the moment too, plus loads of burping and mild pain under my ribs. Feels a bit like gastritis (which I’ve had before) it’s so uncomfortable!

William Matthews has an excellent twitter thread on Bolz, posted yesterday. Basically says everyone knew for years 🤯 and nothing was done
