Danielle Hobson, 36, started experiencing anxiety for "weird and random" things two years ago. The mother-of-two also started getting night sweats, week long episodes of insomnia, heart palpitations and extreme aches and pains sporadically.<br /><br />Danielle began forgetting the names of her friends, what she'd had for breakfast and what she was saying mid-sentence - and was worried she had early onset dementia, but after a work colleague mentioned perimenopause Danielle started researching for herself.<br /><br />After a year of doctors appointments she was officially diagnosed and prescribed HRT - hormone replacement therapy - and says she feels like herself again.
