    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    Book Preview:

    #1 Women’s brains are wired differently from men’s brains, and their hormones do make them more moody. They feel more, and for good reasons. They have always been asked to do difficult work, and their bodies have powerful coping mechanisms to meet these challenges.

    #2 The pharmaceutical industry has exploited our biological attribute of being more moody in women than men, by advertising antidepressants to women and stigmatizing depression as a feminine illness.

    #3 The overprescription of psychiatric medications is especially problematic for women. As more women get breast implants, the rest of us feel flat chested.

    #4 The brain chemistry of women is complex, and it is not just about serotonin and estrogen. When estrogen levels drop, as they do in PMS, postpartum, or perimenopause, moods can plummet.

      Insights from Chapter 1

      #1

      Women’s brains are wired differently from men’s brains, and their hormones do make them more moody. They feel more, and for good reasons. They have always been asked to do difficult work, and their bodies have powerful coping mechanisms to meet these challenges.

      #2

      The pharmaceutical industry has exploited our biological attribute of being more moody in women than men, by advertising antidepressants to women and stigmatizing depression as a feminine illness.

      #3

      The overprescription of psychiatric medications is especially problematic for women. As more women get breast implants, the rest of us feel flat chested.

      #4

      The brain chemistry of women is complex, and it is not just about serotonin and estrogen. When estrogen levels drop, as they do in PMS, postpartum, or perimenopause, moods can plummet.

      #5

      Women’s brains develop differently from men’s, and the distinctions make for profound differences in how we process and communicate emotions. We are not living in a world that is kind to this sort of behavioral response.

      #6

      Men and women are built differently, and this impacts how they respond to conflict. Men are not as sensitive as women, and they do not have as much brain circuitry for detecting emotional nuance and anticipating what others are feeling.

      #7

      The connections between the areas of the brain that process emotion are more active and extensive in women than in men. Women also have more bilateral processing of emotions in their brains, going left to right, right to left, connecting the analytic and emotional areas.

      #8

      The increased risk of depression in women begins early in adolescence as puberty strikes. It ends by age sixty, when hormonal cycling ceases. Certain women are more susceptible to hormonal fluctuations than others.

      #9

      SSRIs are the most common treatment for depression and anxiety, but they can also take away many of the positive feelings that people with these disorders experience. They tend to blunt negative feelings more than they boost the positive ones.

      #10

      SSRIs affect emotional processing, and they turn down the empathy response. This can have devastating effects on the ability to parent or to maintain relationships.

      #11

      There are times when it’s inconvenient to cry, but there are other times when it’s to your advantage. Letting yourself cry can be important
