The anxiety thing is so hard to explain to anyone who hasn't had it like this. It's not about anything. That's the bit people don't get. My husband keeps asking what I'm anxious about and I don't have an answer because there isn't one. It just arrives. Like a weather system. Low pressure, no particular reason, just there. I'm 53 and I'm not even sure where I am with all of this, whether it's peri or post or something else entirely. My periods have been all over the place for two years but I've never really sat down and made a proper timeline of it, which I know I need to do before I go back to the GP. I've been going out for a walk most evenings this week. Not fast, not far. Just out. And something about it does seem to take the edge off the late-day anxiety in particular. I've also been trying to actually eat breakfast, which I used to skip entirely. Whether any of this is doing anything hormonal I have no idea but I feel slightly more human. Anyone else get that anxiety that has no story attached to it? Just wondering if it's as common as it feels like it might be from reading posts on here.
