    Don’t forget the crushing realization that all your childhood dreams are dead!

    I think about this sometimes in the way that if I wanted to start a new career or do something different and I quickly realize im to old to do most things these days... all regular sports have been long gone. Other jobs requiring physical requirements are either over or near the end. I remember seeing the air traffic controller shortage, and they showed the requirements and I laughed and said we'll I couldn't even attempt this if I wanted to since they don't accept people over 31. Lots of options are just gone at this point, and it's sad and scary.

      Sleep apnea makes you feel hungover. Get checked.

        It depends a lot on how physically active you are, but you don't need 2.5l in many cases like office jobs.

        Correct - you could stay with the shitty feeling. You’d still survive

          For me, it’s perimenopause, but good to know.

            Might as well going back/starting drinking at your age!

            I did the opposite and stopped drinking a year ago because it was only hurting my health. But I see your logic.

              True, a lot of options go away, but not everything. When I was 18, my dad died, and I (the youngest) was an adult, so my mom went back to school and became a nurse. She'd been a school secretary for most of my childhood (and ran a childcare center out of our house prior to that), so it was basically her chance to follow her own career path. She became an Nurse Practitioner, and has been doing that for the past 20 years (she's semi-retired). She turns 70 next year.

                Drink water, eat healthy, and exercise this will likely go away in a few days to weeks of good habits.

                While I agree that doing all of the above is good for you, it will not take away perimenopause and menopause symptoms.

                  That is true, but a lot of people on this thread talking about their 30s being like this.

                    Coffee clears that up for me pretty quickly. Like immediately after the first sip. Some say I’m addicted. I say I’m self medicated.

                        I'm 44 and am really quite sick of having to be aware of drinking enough water.

                        Until just a few short years ago I could just crack on and not think about it. If my mouth was dry as Gandhi's flip flops, I'd have a drink, otherwise I wouldn't think about it.

                        Now I start to feel like shit, and can't figure out why, until I remember that i've only had a pint of water today and could probably stand to drink some more.

                        It's bullshit.

                            millions of people are walking around with chronic viral and bacterial infections and don't know it. Feeling like that isn't just normal aging.

                              If this is you, try drinking more water.

                                So not just me then. Had 3 beers the other night, not sure I even caught a buzz. Felt shitty and off for 2 days after. Fucking blows.

                                          Huh? Chronic infections? Do you have a source on this? Sounds like things I've heard to get you to buy whatever flavor of snake oil treatment of the week there is.

                                          Most people probably just need to be more active and eat healthier.
