Category: Human and Animal Behavior
In this episode, Armand DiMele and Sherri Siegel discuss Irritable Male Syndrome (IMS), a condition affecting men characterized by irritability, mood swings, and emotional distress, often linked to hormonal fluctuations and psychological factors. The conversation explores how IMS manifests differently in men compared to women, the biochemical changes involved, and the societal pressures that prevent men from expressing their emotions. They delve into the importance of recognizing symptoms of depression in men, the role of testosterone, and the impact of life stressors on mental health. The episode aims to shed light on this often-overlooked issue and provide insights for both men and women living with or alongside those affected by IMS.
