i had a quick and smooth transition into menopause, from being a victim of PMDD... which put me near suicide on a few occasions.
so menopause was a breeze for me.
no symptoms, no nothing, except i did get the larger menopot (as BW calls it).
i got very robust around the middle.

but it's been good to me. i have dropped about 45 or so pounds.
i sleep really well...
no mood swings, like i did in PMDD...
no suicide tendencies.

i took care of the menopot in 2009...
my breasts stopped growing (I got to 42 GG) and i took care of them in 2015 and they have remained small...
(i have friends that have had breast reductions while still having menses and their breasts keep growing.)

i have heard that bad menopause skips generations...
my grandmother didn't have any symptoms.
my mother went crazy.. seriously.. got total disability for her crazy.
and i didn't have any symptoms..
maybe it's true.

BUT, in the last 4 days.... something new has developed and I've been documenting it..
i have awakened 4 mornings in a row, this week, to fat under my eyes.. in my circles.. it has always been smooth and flat.. and now, I see a fat bulge, under my eyes.. no clue what that is.
