this may be kinda touchy... but i'll risk it just the same... the reason i asked the questions above... is because i have a lady friend that went through the worse fits of depression... anxiety... agoraphobia... fear of driving across bridges... and lots of hot flashes... while going through menopause... she was very hard to help because she was prone to seizures and couldn't take any corrective hormones... she really went through the wringer for several years... hormones out of balance can wreak havoc on your mental... physical... and emotional well being...
hope i haven't offended you in anyway... just thought i might shed another light on the subject...
