On the left we have an XBox series X, on the right we have a PlayStation 5. They are different shapes to each other, they have different operating systems, they experience different internal faults to each other, they are priced differently and they play different games,

but here’s the important bit…

Women and their partners in the journey of Menopause need to be the same. Yes we are different to each other in terms of gender, body features, how we dress, how we speak, how we think, what we experience, what we do, yet…

𝑾𝒆 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒃𝒐𝒕𝒉 π’‰π’–π’Žπ’‚π’, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 π’Žπ’–π’”π’• 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 π’•π’π’ˆπ’†π’•π’‰π’†π’“.

Menopause is a daunting journey for women and their partners, it affects them differently, but there is always the hesitation to speak out about it from both sides in terms of their own experiences and feelings due to feelings if judgement and ridicule…

WHY?…

Because just like we’ve grown up in a PlayStation vs Xbox environment, we’ve also grown up in aΒ #MenΒ vsΒ #WomenΒ environment, where men have often finger-pointed at women, throwing at them accusations such as being dramatic and too over picky, and vice versa where partners are accused of lacking empathy and understanding and not being capable of getting it as they have not gone through it themselves. This is perhaps half the reason why the menopause journey turns into arguments, fall outs and relationships…does it have to be that way, or just like the above picture, can we stand side by side to work together and overcome these challenges?

As a couple, to really work through #Menopause and #Perimenopause we must….

πŸ’–Sit down and communicate to each other openly and honestly about our feelings and experiences

πŸ’–Avoid prejudging and gender stereotypes, focus on being the “games consoles” that stand together as above.

πŸ’–Help each other each day. Guys, whatever support or things your women needs, get it for her, take off the workload. Ladies, if there is anything he needs doing ask. This togetherness actually reduces stress and eases symptoms like #moodswings and #hotflushes

πŸ’–Have boundries, know what to say and do and what not to say and do.

πŸ’–Build your own support networks and be open about who and at times what you are speaking about. This helps ease #anxieties and fear of dishonesty.

It’s not a Men vs Women society, its a man and women TOGETHER society. Let us all focus on being Human and support each other, because it is that one thing, CHOICE, that can completely change the game in your favour and can make the biggest and perhaps most beneficial difference to your relationships and how easy the Menopause journey becomes.
