Why do women get depress easily and how do I overcome it

I'm not sure why women seem to suffer from depression more; it could be because we tend to be more of the caregivers in society or because of hormone fluctuations or a whole myriad of other reasons. But I know what you're saying about not feeling appreciated. The key though is to give yourself your own validation and not be looking for the validation of others. Sure it's wonderful to be appreciated but unless you believe in yourself, all the praise and appreciation in the world doesn't really matter. Take care

hello. i have suffered from depression for over a decade so i can't really give you an answer because i haven't overcome it yet. i am, however, coping. i'm doing much better these days because i found a local support group and it gave me comfort that i'm not alone. how long have you had depression? if it's longer than two weeks, perhaps you should talk to a doctor already. my friends insists that i should go to a doctor but i don't have the money for it yet. most of my friends (from the support group) are diagnosed and they take meds, and they function better with it. you could also try talking to a therapist if you can afford it. i hope this helps.

Well I really think you need to change your perspective and you can do that by believing in yourself and increasing your self-esteem. Just be proud and happy with what you have done and things will work out.

I think its something which is because of our age old tradition. Traditionally women had been dependent on men to earn a living and they had been doing home related activities. They had been not much concerned about outside world and thus they get worried about uncertain situations and circumstances.

Most time, its my work..with ontime deliveries and work loads. I try to divert mind on music and i feel better. We need to manage depression, as it is part of life in busy world. But if we concentrate, we can manage it. I does it through my yoga, listening music and going out on vacation.
