Men vs Women and Depression

Psalm 146:8 - The LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous.

According to everydayhealth.com women are 70 percent more likely than men to develop depression. In the same article, men are more likely to drown their depression in drugs or alcohol, while women are more likely to seek help from friends, family or therapists. Why do you think men self-medicate more than women? If you’re fighting depression right now, have in the past, or know someone who is, what have you found that helps the depression?
