Women are one of the main causes of depression in the world, say psychologists according to research on social relationships, when a woman becomes depressed, the risk that others will develop it increases by 142%. In men, no such effect was found on relatives and friends. The authors explain this by the fact that women express feelings more openly and share their experiences with friends more often, so that their condition is communicated more strongly to others. Men, on the other hand, often spend more time doing things together rather than discussing feelings.
