It may be menopause. It may be depression. It may be something else. <strong>My first, second, and third suggestion to you is to get yourself to a doctor!</strong> Please! You do not have to live in misery. And you need help to begin to find your way through and out of it. Sometimes we just can't do it on our own. If the first doctor doesn't help, keep trying until you find one who <strong>can</strong> help. I can't say strongly enough that you need to see a doctor and perhaps a counselor as well so that you can find some peace and happiness in your life. Warmly, Bonnie Dear Connie, it sounds like you are having a very, very difficult time. It may be menopause. It may be depression. It may be something else.

My first, second, and third suggestion to you is to get yourself to a doctor! Please!

You do not have to live in misery. And you need help to begin to find your way through and out of it. Sometimes we just can’t do it on our own.

If the first doctor doesn’t help, keep trying until you find one who can help. I can’t say strongly enough that you need to see a doctor and perhaps a counselor as well so that you can find some peace and happiness in your life.

Warmly,
Bonnie

That is an amazing stat, isn't it? I was surprised when I first read it. But we know it is hard for people to make changes. I like your take on it -- being really proud of ourselves for the changes we do make. You’re welcome, Ann. That is an amazing stat, isn’t it? I was surprised when I first read it.
