Women Are Twice As Likely As Men To Develop An Anxiety Disorder
According to the ADAA, from the time a girl reaches puberty to the age of 50, she is twice as likely to develop an anxiety disorder as a man. A woman’s fight or flight response is more easily activated and stays activated longer than a man’s – partly due to progesterone and estrogen. There’s also evidence to suggest that the female brain does not process serotonin as quickly as the male brain and they are more sensitive to low levels of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), a hormone that organizes stress responses in mammals.
