Interesting article on entropy, subjectivity and information. “Knowledge begets power, but acquiring and remembering that knowledge consumes power... [Susanne] Still has found that collecting information that does not help an observer make useful predictions decreases their energy efficiency.“ 🧪👩🔬

My perimenopause caused a major depressive episode that started at age 46. Only a new Ob saw the puddle of a person before her, linked it to the PPD i had after each baby and said I needed HRT stat. We did the heart risk assessment and I started that day. Within a week lights were back on. ❤️
I've been told by 3 different Drs within 2 yrs I'm "too young" for peri-menopause.
This thread has revived my
kill em with kindness but don't take no for an answer ass kicking instincts.
Thank you too all the women out their sharing their experiences! You're changing lives ❤️
