> 89.5% Psychological problems [for women] This is a pretty stunning statistic to me. I suppose if you were to ask me to guess which gender is hospitalized the most frequently for mental health reasons, I'd probably guess women... but I wouldn't expect the distribution to be that extremely skewed. Is there a simple explanation for this?

1 in 4 Women are on antidepressant by age 50.

It's a silent epidemic when you look at mental health rates and it appear to be getting worse.
