Bad Marriages, Bad For Women’s Health

Not all marriages are "made in heaven". Apparently, bad marriages take its toll more on women. Not only causing women's depression but also increase their risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

Based on new research performed by a group of psychologists with the University of Utah:

Stressful marriages are leading to heart problems, strokes, and diabetes in women. Even though men did show signs of depression during the study, they did not seem to take marriage problems to heart as much as the women, avoiding some of the more serious side effects.

It looks like women take marriage problems to heart more than men. I think that leaves us to the fact that women in a relationship/marriage should have more 'me' time…to exercise, unwind and stuff. Don't you think?
