Search - Women's Moods: What Every Woman Must Know About Hormones, the Brain, and Emotional Health

This is an intimate look at how women's mood issues change at each other of their reproductive lives.  Nearly twice as many women as men suffer from depression or anxiety, interfering with their ability to work and care for themselves and their loved ones.  Deborah Sichel and Jeanne Watson Driscoll show how depression and anxiety result from long-term chemical "loading" as the brain repeatedly "revs up" in response to stress. They share their unique self-care program, "NURSE: Nourishment and Needs, Understanding, Rest and Relaxation, Spirituality, and Exercise," to help the brain self-stabilize and prevent problems.  They also show how early, customized, and hormonal and reproductive history -- can resolve mood problems before they become entrenched.  Women's Moods offers help to women who have suffered in silence for too long.
