Emotional Roller Coaster Treatment

Start by acknowledging that riding an emotional roller coaster not only makes you feel like hell it's no picnic for the people around you. Be as communicative as you can with your loved ones and co-life people as you are going through perimenopause, menopause and post menopause. Resist the urge to blame the world and everyone in it for your shifting moods.

Conventional Approach: Consider working with a professional therapist.

Complimentary Therapies: Meditation practice will help tame a busy mind and help you to see your world more clearly. There are several different forms of mediation to choose from and a number of ways to find a mediation group or instructor. Check your local yoga studio, health food store bulletin board or talk to your clergy. Make an effort to get together with friends and plan fun activities. Journal. Explore a creative pastime or dream. All these activities will be life affirming.


Herbal Remedies: Wild Yam and Vitex contain phytoprogestins which are effective for hormonal triggers and may help you stay grounded.

Ask your herbalist about other mild depression plant remedies.

Homeopathic Remedies: You will need to keep a log of the ride you take on your emotional roller coaster. What time of day/night do you feel the most edgy? Are you irritable, panicked, sad, worried, tense, weepy, withdrawn or insomniac? Do you have vertigo i.e. do you feel dizzy? Take these detailed notes to your naturopath for a remedy that fits your profile.
