OPINION:
Last summer, I had a few socially distanced drinks on the beach with friends old and new.
As the sky darkened and wine loosened our tongues, chat moved to the menopause. I talked about waking up at 2am, my chest drenched in sweat, my heart racing so fast I feared for my life.
I would remain in that state till 6am and then drop off for two hours until the alarm pulled me out of the sweetest sleep.
