I started progesterone and estrogen patches last fall and had a wonderful experience. At first. After a few months I started getting terrible anxiety, like tight chest anxiety. That quickly turned into intrusive thoughts. Once I came off the patch I felt immediately better. I tried then to cut patch in half and try again and it all happened again.

Has anyone else had this experience on E? Would trying the gel maybe have a different response? I loved the benefits it brought before all the crazy, but I just couldn't live like that. Scared to try something else.
