[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a mid-40s guy who's been divorced for a year. I enjoy dating but not looking for anything serious. Most of the women I've met have just been casual dates but what stands out for me is that so many of them reveal that they're one of the three: bipolar, depressed, or anxious. And I mean clinically diagnosed and been prescribed meds and all that. These are women in their thirties and also forties. It's just so common it blows my mind. Needless to say, I haven't felt comfortable going forward with many of these women I've met. Just too much for me to process. I have plenty of guy friends who also mention that their wives or girlfriends are seeking therapy or taking meds to cope with some mental health diagnosis. But no guy I know has ever mentioned being depressed or anxious. I'm not saying these conditions don't ever affect men, but it just seems so common among women. Any ideas why? I'd like to meet someone eventually who won't go crazy on me. [/quote]

Plainly put, many of these 30 & 40-something women fell for the childless, cool wine aunt meme.  They don’t realize they’ve been sold a lie about the root of  true happiness, therefore mis-diagnosing (as well as over-medicating) the source of their unhappiness.

Likewise, many single men past 35 suffer from lots of stress and anxiety when pondering the simple question of, “What’s wrong with me?”[/quote]
