Abstract

There are social factors as well as mental and physical health issues that women, as a group, have higher risk than men of experiencing or are specific to females. The World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that women have significantly more mental health issues than men in addition to escalating rates of substance abuse. Environmental factors contributing to women’s poor mental health reported by the WHO (2017) include gender based violence, socioeconomic disadvantage, low income and income inequality, low and subordinate social status and unremitting responsibility for others. Women are under pressure as a result of multiple roles and gender discrimination. The long-term impact of women’s vulnerability is not yet understood.
