Video: Why Mid-Life Men Turn Mean and What To Do About It

Written by HealthyPlace.com Staff Writer

Discover why some mid-life men turn mean. Video interview with Dr. Jed Diamond on male menopause, Irritable Male Syndrome, and how women and men can handle it.

Psychologist and author, Dr. Jed Diamond's best-seller "Male Menopause" came out in the late 1990's. From research and personal experience, Dr. Diamond maintained that mid-life men have menopausal symptoms similar to women. Some men have it worse than others and, for those, he coined the term "Irritable Male Syndrome."

When women go through their menopause, many experience mood swings, leaving some men scratching their heads, wondering what is going on. Dr. Diamond says women associated with these mid-life men with Irritable Male Syndrome may be doing the same thing; wondering why their heretofore generally nice, decent husband has suddenly turned mean.

And that is the focus of this HealthyPlace Mental Health TV Show interview with Dr. Jed Diamond.
