Esther McCarthy: Let's play a game — is it menopause or am I a moron?

Some have told me I use perimenopause as an excuse for bad behaviour

Esther McCarthy lists three events from the last week, it's up to you to decide whether it's hormones or just 'being a bit of a gowl'.

It has been pointed out to me that I may be using this whole perimenopause carry on as an excuse for general bad behaviour.

I, obviously, take great exception to this, sulk, and refuse to make dinner for three days, but it did get me thinking. I HAVE just been putting everything under ‘the hormones are fecked, shur what can I do’,’ column of late.
