Looking for help for my mum

Post Content

Hi everyone, I’m posting because I’m really worried about my mum. She’s 50 and recently entered menopause and is barely sleeping. She wakes up in the early hours and can’t fall back asleep, and some nights she hardly sleeps at all and sees every hour on the clock. She’s exhausted and its affecting her mood, as she is on the go all day long and is absolutely shattered. For those of you who didn’t do well on hormonal birth control, was HRT a different experience? If you chose not to use HRT, what actually helped your sleep during menopause? I just want to support her the best I can. It’s hard seeing her so exhausted and frustrated. Any advice — both practical and emotional — would mean a lot!
