Yes! It’s the feeling unheard part. There’s comfort knowing that what we experience is normal and building that community can be helpful for sharing stories and experiences. 💜

That’s so interesting!! I’m going to read this tonight. And agreed, we need to continue sharing our stories.

What is your strangest symptom?
February 22, 2025 at 4:47 AM
No way you have phantom smells too!!?? Omg please let’s talk and I have itchy ears as well. Curious about brain zaps. I’d love to hear your perspective. 🌟

I had to look up PCOS, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with that too! I’m sure it doesn’t make the symptoms any better. Enjoy your bacon sandwich. That sounds perfect. 🤩

Ok def need to read this. I noticed that I wasn’t able to sing high like I used to when I got in my perimenopausal phase. Thought I was going crazy. Can’t wait to read this.

Yikes I had no idea that melatonin was bad in high doses.
I would recommend Magnesium to help with sleep and it has a calming effect as well. I got the powder and drink that before bed and it works better than melatonin for me.
