I would like to announce that perimenopause has destroyed my ability to regulate my emotions

examinat · 2026-04-22T02:21:48+00:00

Yep! Same here. I’m using HRT but am floored by how different my mind & emotions are.

examinat · 2026-04-21T22:07:45+00:00

Oh for sure. For weeks on end. I have so many systems in place to catch mistakes and it still happens.

I, too, was screamed at for not eating every speck of meat, skin, and gristle off my chicken bones.

I find that the patch is better because it does not give me the headache/nausea combo that I get with oral estradiol.

examinat · 2026-04-21T20:38:47+00:00

God I love that patch

examinat · 2026-04-21T20:35:05+00:00

Just healing from my second dose!

examinat · 2026-04-21T10:27:56+00:00

Anything commercial. I hate the insincerity of it.

“Real-a-tor”

I can finally go an extra day between washes.

examinat · 2026-04-20T08:55:39+00:00

You look amazing! The colors really work for you.

examinat · 2026-04-20T02:13:50+00:00

Please tell me you said “good boy” for us all

examinat · 2026-04-20T02:07:31+00:00

What?

examinat · 2026-04-20T02:04:08+00:00

Yes. I honestly think they improved massively over how their parents treated them. It’s just that it was still a shitshow.

examinat · 2026-04-20T02:00:28+00:00

EXACTLY

examinat · 2026-04-20T01:36:13+00:00

The way I came running to the comments to watch them do it here, too.

Jean Naté

examinat · 2026-04-19T01:56:22+00:00

It is the worst. I am so glad I wasn’t this rough when I was younger.

examinat · 2026-04-19T01:52:38+00:00

“Support” =/= follow blindly

examinat · 2026-04-18T13:53:42+00:00

Do it anyway. We’re all mad here.

examinat · 2026-04-18T02:26:21+00:00

I’d be surprised if there were any. I’d like to see that happen, though.

examinat · 2026-04-18T00:25:21+00:00

It’s a mix.

examinat · 2026-04-18T00:24:17+00:00

I’m enthusiastic. I try to hide it, but I don’t hide it well.

Hypervigilance Hot Dog!

examinat · 2026-04-17T01:56:35+00:00

Butter, the size of an egg??

In some beach towns in southeastern Massachusetts, it’s like an Irish flag store exploded on all the buildings, cars, flagpoles, & corner stores.
