Are you a grumpy old man,



Do you easily get frustrated and depressed, Maybe you are experiencing Grumpy Old Man Syndrome – a condition that affects a lot of men, some even in their thirties. This condition, which is similar to a premenstrual syndrome in women, is caused by a hormonal fluctuation in men that may result in depression, stress, insomnia, loss of sexual desire, low energy, and some biochemical changes.

What are the common signs that a man is probably affected by the syndrome, Usually, when someone experiences this condition he suddenly becomes hypersensitive and easily gets upset. He becomes aggressive, begins to yell at the slightest mistakes, and may be physically violent. He worries about things unnecessarily. He is comparable to a pressure cooker, ready to explode when things do not meet his expectations. Though he does not feel sad, worthless, or suicidal, he is definitely not happy and content. He is no longer interested in sexual pleasures and eventually loses interest in his partner. He may also experience erectile dysfunction and does not satisfy his partner, or himself. He easily gets tired because of his low energy level even if he has enough rest.

Other signs include denial, thinking one has all the problems in the world. Sufferers cannot really figure out their problem, but they think that maybe something’s wrong with their wife, their superior at work, or even with strangers.
