Anxiety

This is the second post in a series on some of the physiological (non-psychological) causes of depression and/or anxiety.

The hormonal imbalance I want to talk about is oestrogen dominance. This applies to both women and men (yes, men have oestrogen too). Symptoms of oestrogen dominance or oestrogen imbalance include irritability, insomnia, headaches, mood swings, anxiety and low mood to name a few.

This is the first post in a series on some of the physiological (non-psychological) causes of depression and/or anxiety.

First on the list is the gut.

Our digestive system (or gut) is the epicentre of our physical and mental health, and very often, gut issues go hand-in-hand with mood problems, such as anxiety and depression.

Beyond the psychological, social and emotional aspects, there is usually a biological reason as to why you feel the way you do.
