-Do you feel stressed out much of the time?
-Is there always someplace you're running to?
-Do you feel like you never have any time for yourself?
-Do you frequently find yourself irritated by things that never used to get under your skin?
-Is there a constant stream of 'to-do' lists running through your mind, particularly when you're trying to sleep?
-Do the things that used to give you pleasure in life including sex now fail to excite you?
These are just a few of the serious issues that millions of women of all lifestyles wrestle with daily and just a few of the symptoms of the Hurried Woman Syndrome, an all-too-common stress-related condition. But like being overweight, while the syndrome is quite prevalent, it is anything but normal and it is preventable.
Fatigue, moodiness, weight gain, low sex drive . . . if these issues sound familiar, you are not alone. Nearly 30 million American women struggle with these symptoms every day, sometimes for years. Many of them juggle motherhood and work, paid or volunteer; some are married, some are not. But whatever their differences, they share a constant state of being torn between meeting their own needs and the needs of others with the distinct sense that there isn't really enough time for both. They are all under stress. And they are all hurried. But now help is on the way.
In this much-needed book, leading obstetrician/gynecologist Brent Bost, M.D., empowers you to overcome the Hurried Woman Syndrome a very real condition that is often a precursor to major depression and other stress-related illnesses. Drawing from nearly two decades of insight into women's complex physical and emotional lives, Dr. Bost has created a highly effective, medically sound seven-step program that will enable you to:
-Identify what causes stress and worry in your life including the less obvious but often most damaging stressors
-Lower your stress levels by taking advantage of four key resources: people, money, experience, and time
-Regain your lost energy and happiness
-Learn the principles for achieving and maintaining a healthier body
-Rekindle passion in your relationships
Also included is an attitude and mood self-assessment quiz to help you determine whether your symptoms may require medical attention. While this program alone will be enough for the majority of Hurried Women, others will find that they are too overwhelmed to effectively implement it without help. Antidepressant medication can provide assistance, and specific recommendations for making good choices with your doctor are covered here. But whatever combination of techniques is right for you, this reassuring book reminds you that the Hurried Woman Syndrome is curable.
