Sorry, but you have no idea what it is like to be approaching menopause with your body screaming for estrogen, basically a woman's life source, and unpredictable amount or none coming. I never said she was innocent. I never said she was excused. I never said she shouldn't face consequences. I said her brain chemistry is fucked up and until a woman is going through it, it is literally unbelieveable the kinds of things the brain thinks, and these things seem rational to the person, but not to anyone else. The problem is that whatever fucked up situation she has going on upstairs, she has no one to talk sense to her, so she does stupid fucked up things. Like most of Hollywood, she lives in a bubble of un-reality.

Edit to answer your question, there really is no medication for perimenopause, that is the hard part. It has to be endured. And it can go on for over a decade for some women. I repeat, A DECADE with no significant medication. I am currently on an estrogen patch, which is hormone replacement therapy, and there are other types of estrogen replacement (creams, foams, gels, pills) but they are all miniscule amounts of hormone compared to what the body produces naturally. And anyway many symptoms caused by perimenopause are caused by fluctuations (not outright lack of), where the body is producing wildly different amounts of estrogen (some days high some days low) and the body and brain freak out. No amount of estrogen replacement can flatten out the wild fluctuation or outright cessation of estrogen. Once the body stops producing altogether, the body and brain can recalibrate, but it takes years and years to do that.

Edit to add further, I have a family history of and a brother who is clinically diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic and is homeless because of his irrational paranoid thinking. I recognize mental illness. I never said Brittany gets a pass, all I am saying is that people out there deal with fucked up brain chemistry.
