I TOOK HORMONE REPLACEMENTS (PATCH) FOR 16 YEARS AND HAVE BEEN OFF OF IT FOR 1 YEAR. TOOK A WHOLE YEAR TO WEEN OFF. RECENTLY, I HAVE HAD TIMES OF FEELING REALLY DOWN AND CRYING SPELLS. OTHER PROBLEMS ARE RINGING EARS & I GRIT MY TEETH PRETTY MUCH ALL DAY. (NOT AT NIGHT), HOT FLASHES ARE BACK AND I AM TAKING BLACK COHASH. I DO HAVE THYROID PROBLEMS SINCE 1998 ALSO, SO I HAVE ALL THE PROBLEMS OF LOST OF HAIR, SENSITIVITY TO COLD, ETC ETC. I KNOW STRESS IS PLAYING A PART IN THIS BUT DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TAKE OR HOW TO GET A GRIP ON THIS FEELING. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
