Starting a long journey...

Today starts a long journey on the road of menopause maintenance. I meet with my GP to discuss coming off of Zoloft for anxiety, even though I still struggle with it. It's the catch 22 of coming off of anxiety meds to figure out if my estrogen levels are too low which in turn is causing me to have anxiety. Changing hormonal meds can take up to 6 weeks to figure out if they are a good match or entirely the wrong match which will then make me feel worse. Seems like a vicious cycle but it is the only way for me to figure out my body. The body in which I really am not fond of. I'm not fond of the weight I gain from the two meds I'm on. I'm not fond of them making me hungry. I'm not fond of the hair loss. I am however happy for my life, my husband, son, family, and friends. I will not let this beat me, bring me down any further. I'm determined to win and get my life back. And to lose meds, weight, and anxiety. Please God, I will win this fight. Next week is my consult with my gyn for hormone options. Til then.. Adios amigos!
