I was wondering if any menopausal women here could describe how a hot flash feels to them?

Question:

I have flashes of rage out of the blue, I feel my face get hot, I get shaky, & I feel like I'm going over the top. I really try to stay calm & let it pass, because I feel like a wild beast is about to be unleashed.
Example: I was trying to get the top of the mayo jar tonight & instead of acting with my usual rationale...I decided to hell with it & threw it in the sink to break. This is OUT OF CHARACHTER for me. UGH!!!
I feel like running a marathon in icy rain...is this what I should expect? I've warned the family...lol.

Answers:
Yeah, that's pretty much it. You might want to ask the doc. about a nerve pill to help you through it. If you like tea, you might try some camomile, or nighty nite tea or something along those lines.
Also they make a supplement that you can buy over the counter at a pharmacy for hot flashes.

you, me, and an ice cold shower?
