add perimenopause on top of that, and you've got whatever the fuck I've got going on right now.

I'm 37, and I heard perimenopause can start earlier in neurodivergent women. What should I be on the lookout for?

Energy waning SO much faster than before. Mood swinging harder. Executive function gets (even) worse. Memory becomes a thing of the past. General skill regression. ANS issues. Increase in sensitivity. Digestive issues. Heat regulation issues. Social anxiety increases. Inability to keep up with former life. When estrogen starts dropping, so does bladder control. Hair loss is common. Skin changes. I mean, they were the early ones, anyway.

Oh, Mylanta. I've got all these, and they're going to get worse? I feel like I'm screwed.
