On the other hand, some autistic people accuse parents of oversharing information about…

The Evil Dead horror franchise has been resurrected once again.

For all the fast-food items that generate a lot of positive buzz, there are others that get attention for much other, less flattering reasons. Not even the most beloved fast-food chains have a perfect record when it comes to the quality and reputation of their menu items. Subway, for example, faced legal trouble after customers discovered that the chain’s footlong sub sandwiches aren’t actually a foot long. Other products, like McDonald’s poorly-received attempt to serve up healthier hamburgers in the 1990s with the McLean Deluxe, end up becoming major failures for fast-food chains simply because they’re unpopular or badly executed. Several…

What is premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)? Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a more severe and less common form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). While the two conditions have often been grouped together, PMDD is now recognized as a distinct condition, having been added to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) in 2013. Research on PMDD had been somewhat limited, but this recent recognition has led to improvements in our understanding of this complex and chronic condition. As many as 80 percent of women of childbearing age experience physical or emotional symptoms in the week or two before their…
