I am 37. I was 6 days late and then bled only a few hours...not even half a day. I got a cheap store pregnancy test and it said negative so now I am thinking maybe I am starting the change. My doc says I am too young but I am almost 38. I am very weepy! I am irritable! I am fatigued/exhausted everyday but can't sleep well at night. I am awake around 3-4 everyday and can't seem to go back to sleep or sleep deeply. I'm retaining water weight. I'm craving salt and sugar (these are burned out adrenal symptoms too).
I'm trying not to work out so much or so hard, cutting down on coffee and alcohol, sugar, cutting down on wheat, going to bed at a decent hour, reading in a quiet room every night. I don't know. I am trying to take care of myself and destress and stuff.
So when did your life change begin and how long did it last? What did you do to make the years bearable?
Anybody have burned out adrenals? What did you do for that?
