I'm experiencing the first truly unhinged period of #perimenopause. Three days of spotting, then nothing for three days. Two days of spotting, then nothing for EIGHT days. Now it's started up again. WTF. 😡

It could just stop. Permanently. I wouldn't mind.

Any #perimenopause folks out there? I feel like I’m dying and losing my mind, and I think I need some connections and community to help me navigate this. I’d love to learn from others’ experiences and know I’m not alone (or if in fact I am just dying and losing my mind) 💜

Ridiculous #aging #middleaged #perimenopause experience today:

For my entire adult life I've had this one spot on my chin where a single dark, coarse hair will grow in from time to time. Not an uncommon experience; a lot of women have to pluck a few hairs here and there to maintain the illusion of smooth, perfect skin.

Discovered this morning that the hair had grown back, but now it's gone white -- and I only noticed it because I could feel it when touching my face, but couldn't easily see it any more against my pale skin.

So, my first white hair.... and it's on my chin.

I guess this is 40?
