Rage Release started with perimenopause rage. The kind that arrives out of nowhere, over a dishwasher loaded wrong, and leaves you wondering who on earth that was.
Then the feedback started rolling in. And it turns out it’s not just us.
You told us, loudly
Mums sharing it with their teenagers. Carers using it in the five minutes they get to themselves. People smashing the virtual office after a meeting that should have been an email. Women who are well past menopause and still, quite rightly, furious about the state of things.
One message stuck with us: “I sent this to my daughter. She has an autistic child and found it really helpful.” That’s when we realised we’d built something bigger than the box we’d put it in.
So we’ve opened the doors
Rage Release is now for anyone who’s carrying something heavy. No labels, no diagnosis, no judgement. If it’s building up, you’re in the right place. That includes:
- Teens: exams, group chats, being told to calm down. Somewhere to let it rip that isn’t your bedroom door.
- Parents and carers: running on empty, touched out, and one more “Muuum!” away from losing it.
- Perimenopause: the rage and the brain fog that follows it. This is where it all began.
- Post menopause: the flushes may have calmed down. The fury at how things are? Not so much.
- Work and life: bills, queues, the news, that one colleague.
- Everyone else: no box to tick. Whatever your age, stage or reason.
Nothing you love has gone anywhere
Same four tools, same instant relief. Scream into the jar. Smash plates, windows or walls. Calm down with Bloom or Solitaire. Remember the thing before it vanishes, and we’ll nudge you until it’s done.
The community is still completely anonymous, with a name created for you the moment you arrive. And because channels are organised by topic rather than “what stage are you at”, there’s room for everyone at 3am.
Perimenopause is still home
If you found us through the menopause side of things, don’t worry. You’re not being sidelined. You’re the reason this exists, and the Menopause News and Menopause Bingo aren’t going anywhere. We’ve just pulled up a few more chairs.
Keep the feedback coming
This change happened because you told us what you needed. So keep telling us. Share it with the teenager slamming doors upstairs, the friend who’s barely coping, or the colleague who sighs at every email.
