I am struggling with a life time of Depression, Anxiety, PMS and now Perimenopause. I feel like most of the month is shot because I'm never stable nor behaving "Christlike".
I feel that it is insensitive and harsh (esp. for men) to demand a woman going through this to "rise to the occasion", "put on a happy face", "be a gracious Christian lady who always is flowing in the Spirit" being loving, giving, caring, gentle, submissive, sacrificing, etc. I am tired of fighting not being a B*#^% and ceasing complaining about everything. Surely, God has more for me in living the Christian life than this.
