My husband bought me this book yesterday after having suffered a month of me realising I was 'changing'. I had been spotting symptons after reading information on the internet, and was feeling very negative about the whole process. This book has helped me in the course of just one evening to reassess the whole idea of the (peri)menopause with helpful, down to earth information and suggestions. I already feel much more positive and will endeavour to follow the sound advice to 'take control, see this time as an opportunity, and keep a sense of perspective'.
However, the best bit for me was the advice to bounce - I have always wanted a trampoline and bought myself one a couple of weeks ago - this book backed up my decision! I would highly recommend both the book AND the trampoline!
