When Women Talk To Each Other About Their Problems, They End Up Feeling More Stressed Out . . . Not Less

There's a time-honored tradition of two women getting together to talk about their problems . . . and according to a new study from Oklahoma State University, it's BAD for BOTH ladies involved.

In the study, researchers found that female friends who listen to each other's problems . . . and then dwell on them without trying to figure out any solution . . . have spikes in the hormone cortisol. That causes stress.

The phenomenon doesn't happen with guys who share their problems, since they're MUCH more solution-oriented . . . guys will almost always try to end up with a solution.
