Good to hear that you're researching your own states of mind, I imagine it can have a calming and positive effect.
Since I've connected hormone levels to the Strauss & Howe generational theory, I've been looking what effects the cyclical hormone levels have from social mood to individual decisions. Hormones affect every single part of our lives, which is why I recommend reading my theory, as it may open new ideas for you.
One quick related idea is that since low oxytocin levels imply an anti-social generation, that being Gen X during this cycle, it could possibly mean that Gen X, especially the ones born in 1965-1975, are generally more introvert than millennials. I have situated a quick rise in oxytocin levels from 1972 to 1980 in the cycle.
