Women are at greater risk of suffering from major depression than are men, by about 3 to 1. This has not yet been explained, but a host of factors are possible, including socioeconomic, cultural, and biological. Men, on the other hand, are at greater risk of anti-social disorders (marked by committing crimes, violent abusive behavior) and drug abuse.

Depressed men and women tend, on average. to present with similar symptoms of depression (loss of appetite, insomnia, feelings of sadness, hopelessness, loss of pleasure in usual activities, lasting for more than 2-3 weeks). A certain proportion of women with depression, however, present with "atypical" symptoms, and this is seldom (though sometimes!) seen in men. This is marked by over-eating, sleeping more than usual, etc.

anyone is able to suffer from depression... from any age to any gender.. Women are treated more often for depression than men. Men may have as much depression but they are less likely to seek treatment.
