Made to Forget... by Sam Goodno5/22/2023 ![]() ![]() I think my lived experience of the ‘last taboo’ or the ‘Big M’ (thankfully one rarely hears it called ‘THE CHANGE’ anymore with all its doom-laden, metamorphic overtones) might be useful out there in the ether where women are searching for something that relates to their own experience. June Everything I needed to know about the menopause… No One Told Me I hope all of you find your way through, with or without medical help. ![]() And to see so many of you posting and talking to each other about your experiences and supporting each other is a joy. I am so glad I did – if knowing that you are not alone has helped just one other woman, just one little bit, then it is so worthwhile. ![]() I also spent quite a while making my mind up whether to share such a personal experience. When I wrote this in 2015, I had no idea it would still be being read and resonating with women 5 years later. To all you lovely women who have commented on this blog – THANK YOU. A message to readers from June Girvin, July 2020: Page last updated 25 April 2022 with the addition of links to resources at the end of the blog. ![]() This blog is one of several in a special series on the menopause.
