Possible Upside to Menopausal Symptoms?
Reader EW of California writes: "I woke up this Monday feeling like I didn't want to get out of bed but then started beating myself up for not wanting to get out of bed.

Dammit … It IS Menopause!
One day at the gym, I knew I was starting to have a morsel of acceptance of my condition, even though I did not give my permission for my body to experience PM. One of my friends recommended a surfing video I could buy for my husband’s birthday. The video had a two-word title. Surely I could remember that until I got to the car to write it down.

By that time, my friend was busily engaged in a conversation with another woman I barely knew. I completely interrupted them with my question, pleading “sorry, menopause!” The two women laughed knowingly and didn’t mind my rudeness a bit. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I guess there could be some advantages to this …
Dear God,
Please help me be patient with myself and my memory. Give me yet another dose of extreme self-acceptance about where I am today.
