Is depression different for women than for men

i see women who are supposed to have depression and they are on medication and everything for it yet they seem to live a really happy life, constantly high energy, working, new hobbies, meeting new people, making friends, having boyfriends all the time, going to the gym

depressed men in the same situation become low energy low motivation Neets and rot away, very little human interaction, but women seem to love socializing and dating even when they are depressed.

how come the depression does not slow down women and make them into rotting losers like with men?

You must really have autism most women don't get depression they just want attention from their friends on social media and the tiny tiny percentage that does get actual depression doesn't post about it all over social media

i know several women who are on pills for it, a couple have been suicidal years back but have still lived a normal dating life and still look good, no weight gain from the pills like men get

I've watched my mom suffer from depression my entire life. I've noticed we share a lot of similar symptoms, but when it comes to her ability to see life as something positive and project an optimistic attitude that's where we differ. she still maintains friendships, gets happy during holidays ect ect. i think that's where a lot of men with depression are different. were not just physically drained need to sleep have low energy, we also contemplate the depths of the darkness more than women with "meme" depression.


i could be completely wrong and theres tons of women who are just like men with severe depression. WHO FUCKING KNOWS IM TIRED!

Women are shallow, and so it's women's depression, and they can whine and cry to get attention. Men, on the other hand, can't whine or cry, without looking like faggots, and even so men don't get enough attention, or at all.
So true, but women also fake a lot of their emotions, they maintain friendships and pretend to be happy in order to get the constant validation they need so they don't fall into depression again.

does women depression still hurt them cause its all they know and even their babby depression hurts them?

How well do you know these women? I've known a few depressed girls well and they get much uglier the closer you get to knowing their true state. They are incredibly dedicated to keeping up appearances, this is why they can be dead inside but still posting vacation pics while depressed men just stay in the basement.

You are not depressed, neither is almost anyone on Jow Forums. Being a sad sack of shit shut-in NEET does not mean you are depressed

What are they then? You can't just take a bunch of people who hate themselves and can barely even muster enough energy to leave their bedroom and tell them "you're fine" like the doctors do.

And don't even try to help those kind of women. Once they get validation from you, they will dump you. It happened to me with a girl I tried to date. She rejected me, but I think that she did me a favor in the end.

Look up what depression is. It's not being sad because you don't have a gf.

It's true no matter how beautiful you are there are tragic things in life everyone faces. My ex gf was a mess her family abandoned her. She spent most of her day sitting alone in her room doing drugs

The no gf thing is a meme, dude. People are on here for other reasons, the no gf thing has been a joke since feel threads and since normalniggers like to make everything into a cartoon they conveniently ignore everything else and pretend r9k is and always was about no gf. You're fucking retarded my man nothing but a retarded fag or a woman with meme depression.

It's not about not having a girlfriend. Most here hate themselves and some think about suicide often. They regularly label themselves as losers, subhumans, etc and have zero self-esteem. How do you explain the lack of motivation, extreme self-hated, and the constant low energy that most here have if not depression?

kill yourseIf you retarded whore

>Is depression different for women than for men
Yes. It's real for men. If you have endless support from a mass of slaves, it's not really depression.

Implying people only get depressed when they are lonely.... If I killed your family and cut your dick off it wouldn't matter how many orbiters you have you'd still be miserable

whats it feel like to have constant social validation and support just for having a pussy? ;)

I wouldn't know retard, you're the one who thinks getting laid will cure depression.

>I wouldn't know retard

Nice try bitch ;)

>you'd still be miserable
Yeah, but I'd be miserable before. See, that's the difference. You need some one in a million dream scenario to even be depressed because you live on tutorial mode.

women's lives are criminally easy, they don't even need to go 'do' them really it sort of just happens. They will be contacted.

they do get depressed though

Why are you miserable then? And how will getting laid magically fix it? Maybe you will see my point.

My god you're terrible myopic and this whole conversation just shows are helplessly ignorant you are. Femwhores live sheltered lives so what should I expect though....

>And how will getting laid magically fix it?
Did I imply that it would? Are you this fucking dense?

You did imply that you think just because a women is able to have sex then she has no reason to be depressed. And I'm not a girl nice reading comprehension skills

So you're just an effeminate fag then? same thing

>You did imply that you think just because a women is able to have sex
No I didn't. Having a support network is not the same a sex, you mouth-breather.
>And I'm not a girl
You had me fooled, because you sure argue like one.

Women's "depression" always stems from one of their boyfriends/break ups, it's always connected to sex or relationships in some way, so i don't know why you'd have us believe that women can get depressed for other reasons when they can't.

>because you sure argue like one.
Lol says the beta who just throws insults instead of having a discussion, who's acting like the women? So having a few beta orbiters will make all your problems go away? I had a broken childhood and was a drug addict for years that's what causes my depression, to think the Same can't happen to a girl is retarded

>Lol says the [insult] who just throws insults

wow truly a brilliant mind

Isn't it obvious? Women just report depression and depressive symptoms more often and they're also more likely to go to the doctor for any condition and take medication of any form. They have a lot more "compliance", which doctors and pharma companies love $$$. They also believe they are depressed. Males are supposed to have more of a leader role, they don't like to think of themselves as depressed, they are a lot more likely to reject that label. The idea that women are more likely to be depressed is imo bogus. Psych is not a real science (in my personal opinion, most people probably disagree but I have good reasons), it is way too arbitrary. If you took depression as meaning that it affects your ability to do things then clearly it would be all those men who are "depressed".

tl;dr: Woman are just more likely to report and emphasize depression.

Lol Look how dumb you are

Why do you think I thought it was a roastie? Literally
>no u
level of discussion.

Lol xDD I'm totally owning rn

Shut the fuck up, you've been thoroughly called out you retard lol

If you believe you're depressed and seek medication for depression, you'll be placed on it. There are different levels an individual may face, but a lot of women are quicker to seek medical help than men, and it isn't just for mental illness, there's statistics that women are more likely to be on top of their health and schedule more regular appointments than men. I think that's a result of public health campaigns targeting women's reproductive health creating behaviors at a young age

Take that as a positive or a negative, but there are definitely individuals who experience classic expressions of depression. I dated a girl who was fiercely depressed when her abusive father developed cancer. She went days without eating, sometimes not getting out of bed, etc, but it's very much an individual thing

see Dumb fucking bitch go cry on your bfs shoulder, hope you OD on those drugs lmaooo

>I had a broken childhood and was a drug addict for years

too bad you it didn't kill your worthless ass

Don't even bother. Meme gender.

How's it feel to come in here as a phony retard and try and lecture people about depression?

FUCKING BASED LOL

Lol you had a broken childhood, dumb bitch you probably emulate your incompetent whore mom

>Calling someone worthless in broken english

women only feel negative emotion from the centre of their universe. they will never understand the depression that ensues when you can have genuine existential dread and see yourself from an external highly self aware perspective where you second guess the nature of everything at every turn.
a woman cannot conceive that you might have some kind of extreme mental anguish over something abstract.
women understand or don't care about anything other than what they can directly experience or what the are told.

female "depression" if it even exists is as shallow as a puddle. they can easily snap out of it at a moments notice because the causes are so trivial.

I found this site a while ago, I don't really like it but they have a part that shows some differences between male and female depression.

mantherapy.org/#!/card/368/Depression

too bad you didn't die

I think that you're generalising, but if you want trivialise depression in women you might as well accept the "children in africa" argument as well

Tell me more about your "depression" and how it will be cured the moment some slut gives you attention.Sounds to me you are just as worthless as the girls you preach to hate so much.

Tell me more about your meme daddy issues depression retard

It is.
Women are allowed to support and empathize only with other women.
Men aren't. If we do, we lose respect and a lifelong stigma will be placed on you by everyone that knows you.
If you already had issues and people treated you differently, don't even bother, as soon as you vomit your issues, poof, everyone's gone.
Subjectively, despression is the same in men and women.
Objectively, women have little to be depressed about, they never get existential crisis or any other big reasons to be depressed, at the end of the day, she will find genuine support, without being judged for it, should she win, she actually gets even more social power for defeating depression or whatever bullshit they think they suffered from.
Society was literally built to protect women and children, as the saying goes.
Learn how to take words for what they actually are, don't pass anything as 'just a joke'.
Humour is not meant to entertain, but to minimize the tragedies of life.
Human society are inherently gynocentric, nothing we can do about it.
For every man that hates women, there are 10 whiteknights coming to milady's rescue just for a chance to get balls deep in her guts.
In this current society you ought to be amoral and take what you want, for nothing is guaranteed anymore.
If you can get away with it, it's probably worth doing.
Whatever your choice, as a man, you will be always alone in this world, it's up to you to choose how to cope.
My suggestion? If you are depressed, either kill yourself cause ain't nobody giving a shit about you, accept it, or try to get as much power as you can and carve your own kingdom in the limits of your possibilities , you might die trying, but who gives a shit at that point, you only have your life to lose, we already establish it isn't worth jackshit anyway.
Women don't even come close to know what being a average/below man is like.
Life is unfair.
This is the law.
Don't play fair.
This is your rule.
