Depression in Menopause is probably the norm.

If you are wicked busy, then you could get depressed and overwhelmed.

If you are under busy, the same will probably happen.

First, exercise, walk around the block for 30 minutes, listen to your favorite tunes or the news, or your own heart beating, next see advice below if this doesn’t help.

Talk to your spouse about what is going on and see if spouse can offer support and ideas.

Next talk with friends and family for ideas.

Next join something.

A book club, a bike riding place. See if your area needs volunteers at the dog pound or reading to the elderly or at a special needs place or girl or boy scouts. You need to be busy. Don’t overload or you will not conquer the depression but add to it.

Take up reading even if you don’t like to read, it takes you away to another land and absorbs your poor health feelings. Get some joke books too.

In menopause this is a natural feeling due to body changes and hormone levels. But you can control your own destiny. It may take several months, but try to get more busy and more active. You have to exercise with weights and walks to keep strong.

You are not alone, it is happening to most menopausal women, so take charge of your life immediately. Good Luck!

Being busy you will know more people and feel happier too. Really.
