Fundamentally, I would encourage you to praise God through the menopause (perhaps, more specifically, the peri-menopausal experience) as you would praise him through other seasons of difficulty and challenge. Let me offer some particular encouragements and suggestions.
First, humbly accept that time is passing. You grow older, and it has an impact on your body. Our society idolises youth, desperately and foolishly trying to preserve an impossible standard of health and beauty. The mindset that age and its effects can be staved off is not only unrealistic but condemns to perpetual misery (for men and women). Eat well, exercise well, and rest well – there is no need to be slovenly or negative – but accept that the passage of time will change you.
