Your hormones literally control you. They make you horny, they give you a temper, they make you hungry. They make you more or less emotional, happy, sad, ect. They dictate your personality. Menopause is so under-researched and the average person knows so little about it that women are just left to suffer. For years. Seriously, she's not in her right mind and clearly suffering a lot. I think they're being too harsh, coming from someone who experienced domestic abuse when I was a child.
