In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips speaks to Australia's very own Peri Godmother, Shelly Horton, about one of the less discussed areas of perimenopause – the impact on mental health. In this frank and funny conversation, Shelly explains how hormonal shifts hit her like a freight train, and how her experiences led her to pen a bestselling book and become a peri crusader. The duo discuss Shelly's darkest moment, the place of talk therapy, antidepressants and HRT, and Amelia opens up about her own midlife mood swings.
