Depression in the field of tension of gender roles

BACKGROUND: The distribution of depression and suicidal ideation by gender reveals a gender paradox: women are at least twice as likely to be diagnosed with depressive disorders but have a lower suicide rate than men. In contrast, the suicide rate of men is at least three times higher than women, while the prevalence of depressive disorders is only half as high. Although these differences have long been known the reasons for this paradox are still not fully understood.
AIM OF THE ARTICLE AND METHOD: The aim of this narrative review article is to discuss possible explanatory models regarding gender differences in depressive disorders. Aspects related to stress processing and traumatization are considered as well as sociological and biological factors. This article summarizes information that was considered particularly relevant in the interdisciplinary dialogue regarding possible explanatory factors for gender differences in depressive disorders.
RESULTS: The summarized studies indicate that women and men differ in certain aspects of stress processing and trauma exposure but men do not have a lower risk of disease as a result. On the contrary, the frequency of depressive disorders in men seems to be underestimated due to an atypical symptom manifestation.
DISCUSSION: The implementation of knowledge about gender-specific vulnerability in the training of physicians and psychotherapists, the systematic assessment of gender beyond binary classifications as well as further diversity domains in research and healthcare as well as gender-sensitive and diversity-sensitive prevention strategies could contribute to the resolution of the gender paradox.
