Menopause and More: Managing Psychological Symptoms
The fourth Menopause and More session covers Managing Psychological Symptoms. Menopause impacts us not just physically but in emotional ways as well. However, anxiety and mood changes associated with hormonal changes are sometimes not taken seriously, and women may mask their feelings to protect themselves from the reactions of their peers.
Delivered by Meherzin Das, Dorset HealthCare Professional Lead for Psychology and Psychological Therapies, and Laila Jamil, Here For Each Other Clinical Psychology Lead, this session will tackle the stigma which often still accompanies emotional issues. The session will help participants share strategies to meet their own needs and deal with these surprisingly common emotional experiences.
Menopause and More is a multipart interactive series focusing on specific menopause themes. From symptoms, challenges and treatments to risks and common side effects, this series will cover everything and more on managing the menopause from a clinical and social perspective.
