I'm at my wit's end here. My mom started going through menopause about six months ago, and it's like she's become a completely different person. She used to call me every other day just to chat, but now she barely responds to my texts 📱 Last month, I invited her to my daughter's birthday party - her own granddaughter's party - and she just said she "wasn't feeling up to it." She's declined every family dinner since then, and when I try to visit, she acts like I'm bothering her 💔 I know menopause is tough, and I want to give her space to deal with whatever she's going through. But I miss my mom so much! It's like she's checked out of our entire family, and I don't know if I should keep trying or just wait it out. Have any of you dealt with a parent going through menopause who just... disappeared emotionally? I could really use some advice from people who've been through this. How do you support someone who doesn't want to be supported? 😠#menopause #family #motherdaughter #FamilyRelationships
