"Women are prone to depression and anxiety" women are as twice as likely as men to experience depression and anxiety disorders. Different factors comes into play with women: hormonal fluctuations, life transitions, societal pressures, and genetic predisposition all contribute to increased risk. How do we women overcome persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, irritability, changes in appetite or sleep pattern and possibly loss of interest in activities.

In our contemporary world, women are the most unique personalities that are endowed with an extraordinary ability and skills in multi-tasking, although we are said to be the most emotional personality, always found crying at the slightest thing, easily depressed and frustrated when we deprived of our happiness, sad when our effort proves abortive. We are prone to anxiety and depression because so many factors trigger it. Some women are so determined to bring impact and influence to their community or society, but she is giving the audience to explore that dream or vision simply because of gender discrimination, leaving deeper wounds in our hearts which leads to anxiety and depression.

While growing up, my mum told me her story, how she was deprived of going to school because of her gender, she said in the olden days, most men believe that investing in their female children is a waste of time and resources, because they have no place nor voice in the society, and that they are only meant to be in the kitchen and be a baby producing factory in their husband's houses, and then so many men try to frustrate all the effort of most of the women so that what they believe about female children becomes a fact. And I was moved to ask a question, what gave them this ideology of these gender discrimination? Does Being a woman make us more or less human? Being a woman does not limit us from having great dream and future. Handling this disposition also triggers anxiety and depression in our lives as women.

I am happy that in our 21st century we have broken out from those concepts and ideology, beginning with the passion for education and participation in any of the community activities, (state or our society) most of us also have become a voice in our society and our states.

As a woman, I strive daily to be a voice in my community whenever I have the opportunity because the future of our young girls is dependent on the foundation we have laid, there shouldn't be gender discrimination, but everyone should be treated fairly and equally, only then will the world become a better place.

Thank you ladies of hive for this beautiful opportunity to share my thoughts.
