We all experience the occasional negative thinking from time to time, but if you feel overwhelmed by these thoughts too often, then you need to closely examine how these thoughts are negatively impacting your lifestyle.

How often you find yourself wanting to hide from the world? You feel like you are invisible and, to be frank, that would be better because you would get overwhelmed otherwise. Every time you try to be confident, you mess up. You speak fast and you want to leave the situation as soon as possible. Work or family gatherings give you chills, and going to a bar or a social event is just an immediate panic attack waiting to happen, and you get anxiety and butterflies in your stomach.

Dozens of books promise to improve your brain function with a gimmick. Lifestyle changes, microdosing, electromagnetic stimulation: Just one weird trick can lightly alter or dramatically deconstruct your brain. In truth, there is no one-size-fits-all shortcut to the ideal mind. Instead, the way to understand cognitive enhancement is to think like a tailor: Measure how you need your brain to change, and then find a plan that suits it.

Relentless fear, chest pain, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath, among other things, are signs you’re having an anxiety or panic attack. Both may feel similar; this is because they share a lot of emotional and physical symptoms. However, an anxiety attack is a different condition from a panic attack. Anxiety can build gradually and is usually linked to an event, situation, or experience that’s perceived as threatening or stressful. Panic attacks, however, often occur out of the blue, and aren’t always cued by stressors.

That is the question explored in this ground-breaking book.

Women are far more likely than men to suffer from anxiety, depression, migraines, brain injuries, strokes and Alzheimer's disease. But, until recently, scientific research has focused on 'bikini medicine,' assuming that women are essentially men with different reproductive organs. The XX Brain presents groundbreaking research showing that women's brains age distinctly from men's, due mostly to the decline of a key brain-protective hormone: estrogen.
