I was given a web link www.menopausematters.co.uk by my G.P and found this book was recommended. The book has been so informative and helpful. I actually thought I was losing my mind (and terminally ill) It has also helped my husband understand a bit more why I've been a raving loon at certain times! More importantly it gives you better ways of coping, it isn't a "get out of jail free card" it just explains the reasons WHY you maybe feeling the way you do and gives you impartial advice on all the different treatments that are available. When starting out on the menopausal rollercoaster it's just good to know that you aren't the first person to go through it and you won't be the last, and more importantly, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and your life as you know it hasn't ended!
