There is a silhouette of a woman in the foreground of this picture in the corner on the left, but she is a tiny part of the image. In the background, you see ocean waves breaking onto the beach she is standing on. The beach is made up of static, curled waves and her feet disappear into one of them. It appears to be nighttime, the picture is mostly grey with subtle blues. She is trapped in the turmoil of the ocean and the night. The ocean meets the sky half way up the image, until that point, the waves are wild and rough, here there is a tiny silhouette of a lighthouse. On the horizon is a huge semi-circle right in the centre of this picture, it is the focus of the image, what the woman is looking at. In the sky, there are tiny specs of birds that seem to be flying towards this. It initially looks like the moon, but on closer inspection, you realise it is the day, clarity. The whole picture is framed by two enormous waves that appear at though they will crash down onto the woman.

Perimenopause hit me like a brick

This is the most personal blog I’ve made so far. It makes me feel raw and vulnerable to be sharing this, and I wondered if I would be brave enough to do it. But now it’s written and even recorded, I’m actually feeling quite proud of myself and I do feel brave sharing it.

Perimenopause is like one of those elephants in the room. But it needs to be talked about! Half of us are going to go through it, and without fore-knowledge it’s a really scary thing. Trust me 😉

It’s heavy at the start, but please don’t get disheartened. It ends with hope.

Please be aware, this post includes details of a sexual assault on a teenager that might be upsetting to read.

This post is on how important mutual respect between sexual partners is, I talk about my man, our friend and me. But it’s also an unashamed rant about the unfair treatment and expectations of women and girls in patriarchal society, particularly in America. Be warned, I also mention Trump.
