This just in:

Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men - The Washington Post

Wonder why that is?

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

uhhh coz women have to put up with men and all their nonsense

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Could be that they just crazy.

TTFM

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

You seem to be the exception unless you’re a female then yes this study is spot on dude

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Someone went through all the threads in Life1?

I feel for him or her!

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Born insecure, lives insecure, victim mentality, retaliatory mentality, plus stresses from men and relationships and the eventual realization at 65 it was all for nothing!

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Without turning it into a gender battle…it’s sad. Depression has a domino effect on so many areas of your life as well as your loved ones.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Unfortunately, it is true.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

“Part of the survey includes six questions used to identify people with high likelihood of having a diagnosable mental illness”

The with and without spd graph is cum results for 2009 to 2013. Assuming men vs women difference r part of same study this presents 2009 to 2013 cumulative results - 5 yrs, if we count 09 and 13.

It would be nice to show similar results for other 5 year periods before concluding anything.

The difference was about 1 percentage point for all age groups. Maybe significant. Maybe not.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

The study is not just about depression though.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Wheres the fun in that? BTW… this was a CDC study.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Then how do you explain it in men?

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

CDC did… your tax dollars hard at work.. :slight_smile:

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

is it because they are being treated like men ?
When they should be handled like women ?

On hardware level are they not made differently, they can produce babies.
Which mes up their own balance. Remember too prone to sever depression after giving birth?

I mean guys if some thing left your body after taking what ever he/she needed.
I think its case of more sophisticated machines breaking more often.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

men: Born with a superiority complex and drive to rule. To them justice revolves around property rights and its easy to treat women as posessions. Women may suffer from mental health issues later in life, but men lead unenlightened sociopathic lives.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Well… all I conclude from those two posts is this: sanity is relative.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

No. Perception is relative. Sanity is really self evident. Haha
False peceptions lead to sociopathic behavior

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

Har jaga pe apna looch talty he is liye. Man from the very start are focused on their careers & they stay focused on that while on the other hand females want to do both male female work. They want to work full time, pop out kids evey other year, do household chores, raise kids etc etc. Why overburden yourself? All problems will be solved once both genders realize they are different & meant to perform different duties.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

…Evolve already. Sometimes people are just people and their passion is just that - passion. They don’t intentionally plan their lives around the private parts they are born with. Sure there are psychological and physiological differences but it has nothing to do with what we have been raised to believe. The fact that the percentage of women in the workforce and higher education keeps rising only tells me that men are perhaps not doing what they are supposed to. Does this mean women are driven to pursue higher education, get better jobs becuse their men are not doing enough? Or maybe there is another way to look at it: people are consciously choosing their careers, jobs, and basically whatever the f they want to do with their lives. Well, at least that is how I look at it.

You are one of the men driving women insane and not in a good way. :mocking:

Also, mental illness is more likely to occur if children are taught that life is supposed to be a certain way. You teach your children what to expect and when those expectations are not met, they can end up pretty screwed up. This is why I hate society.

Re: Report: Women are more likely to have serious mental health problems than men

**‘..work full time, pop out kids every other year..’ **

Yes, of course that’s what women want :rolleyes:
