Q: Menopause, Or Not?
asked by: dreamalong on September 27th, 2003

My problems are several, and I don't know if this is where I need to be or not. Could someone please help me?

First I am a 46 year old mother of a 17 year old, and I take on her love problems, as if they were my own. She recently broke up with a boyfreind, that I thought was a total mismatch. I got mad at him. She however, is not mad. I don't understand why I would be mad and she isn't. He didn't do this to me. Why?

Then my marriage of 18 years is really falling apart. We have seen a counselor (due to my husbands problems). He is a crossdresser, and has no sexual desires. He has tried to be very supportive of me, he has even had a penal implant (he has diabetes, and has had heart bypass). I really don't know whether I even want him sexually anymore (i feel so unwanted sexually). I have had no sexual feelings recently, don't know if it's because of my attitude towards it, or what. I am very much overweight, and very down on myself. I quit smoking 1 and half years ago, and seriously thinking of taking it up again. I was going to a diet clinic and losing weight very good, but had to stop (financially husbands medication was more important). I love my husband, and really don't want a divorce, I just don't know how long I can go on this way.

I also have type 2 diabetes, and the weight loss was helping my blood sugar, however, I now am totally out of control (eating everything in sight). Evil or Very Mad

i am currently on prozac for depression, and my mind keeps going over the same things. I become obsessed with something, and won't let go (yet there are a 100 other things rattling around in there). Crying or Very sad I am very sad with my life 99% of the time, I keep feeling that there must be something more. I think that I could be menopausal, but my gyno said that I am not going through menopause. Can anyone suggest something?
