i just looked it up....and UBER is right....told you she was a fraud lol

yes Uber, you have made the most sense out of all these posters....you stated fact without getting hostile.

Men will usually just drink themselves to sleep or work constantly, thus never search help. Women will do things like light themselves on fire, jump off roofs, steal and cheat on their spouses, thus causing an intervention by a doctor, crisis or a judge (depending on if children are involved). I get these true examples from the 15 years as a master level therapist, using Minuchin's family approach to therapy trained from the Philadelphia Child Guidance Clinic (in case you wish to argue with me). Now if you work in a mens prison as a counselor, then sure, they will ask you for help more than women will. Otherwise, WOMEN suffer from more severe Mental Health Disorders than men do.


I don't understand, you just reiterated my point. I clearly stated women are more likely to seek professional help for mental health issues than men, which leads to more women being DIAGNOSED, increasing the numbers. You are correct in saying that men often try to self medicate rather than seek professional help. People also get confused in the area of suicide attempts. While more men COMPLETE suicide, the attempts are actually the same. The difference in the stats are due to the methods used. Women are more likely to use passive means such as pills while men use guns. Men are also more likely to suffer from autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia than women. Why would I argue with you, we seem to be in agreement here, did you misread my post?

And WTF is wrong with you people, do people really lie about their education and profession?

Uber, for heaven's sake...TELL THE TRUTH! You are NOT a mental health professional! You're googling, and pretending.

All I require from people is that they be honest. You and the Buey can't do that.

Checking out of this worthless thread full of lies and posturing and little boys pretending to have cojones.

OP, nowhere in your thread did you mention that these women "don't have time to seek help". And since you have lost interest already...Here is a report from WHO about Gender and Womens Mental Health...

Gender specific risk factors for mental health disorders that disproportionately affect women include Gender Based Violence, socioeconomic disavantage, low income and Income Equality. Low or subordinate social status and rank and unremitting responsibility for the care of others.

Goes on to say.........

The High prevalence of Sexual Violence to which women are exposed and the correspondingly high rate of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD) following such violence renders women the LARGEST single group of people affected by this disorder.

I guess we're just VICTIMS. By the way, I think you are a PUNK. Did a survey of all your posts. Yep, just a know-it-all Punk.

This coming from a guy who has a picture of his finger pointing to his head as if it was a gun...suicide hotline might help bro..lol

actually wise girl, it was an article i read and wanted to see others opinions about these facts, it is what it is..the fact that are going against facts makes you ignorant and hostile

Of course they do, and as kids, and teens, and young adults, and as grown women.


The reason it seems to be up is because many people dont get the knowledge, and understanding of how to get a grip on, find help, and take hold of their problem til later in life.


There is a stigma attatched to people with these issues, and the word is just really getting out that these issues really exist with a name.


I think theres even alot MORE who go undiagnosed.. women, AND men.
