I started menopause two years ago (or peri for a year and then meno, whatever the lingo is) and I didn’t know why I was experiencing the issues that I now take to be worsening ADHD, which was never diagnosed.

My friend is a cardiac rehab nurse and she says dopamine levels go down after menopause, so I figure that’s what was going on. Whatever coping techniques I had instinctively developed over my whole life just weren’t working anymore.
