When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress

(U.S. Title: When the Body Says No: Exploring the Stress-Disease Connection)

There were a couple of revelations while folding laundry and listening to the narrator talk about women who had suffered all sorts of physical distress in the body while living with a man who was draining them emotionally. This resonated with me and I was finally able to put some pieces together in regards to my own physical health as it related to my sexual shut down.
