Psychotherapist Jennifer Cox believes that women are never allowed to truly express their anger, and this is making them ill. After a lifetime of being told to repress it, to hide away and fear it, anger has begun to manifest in female bodies in myriad ways that cannot be controlled. Do you agree? Jennifer has drawn her conclusions from talking to women from all walks of life and ages in her work as a therapist. The tendency of women to shrug off anger and not make a fuss is dangerous because an autoimmune condition ravages and, she witnesses the devastation daily. The symptoms include anxiety, depression, migraine and depression. Women are twice as likely as men to suffer depression and three times more likely to experience migraines. “Anger is eating us up, from the inside out,” she writes.
“We’ve been conditioned not to recognise our rage, so it burns behind the scenes. And from there, it’s destroying us.” Last year, Jennifer founded the Women and Mad movement which gained more then 10,000 followers in the first six months. Are you angry? How do you identify it? And what do you do about it?
