SUMMARY

When I started writing this paper, I got stumbled in the beginning, questioned myself should I have to take this subject? Because collecting thoughts to scrap very details of my worst days, is really a heart-breaking work. I receded for an hour, took a walk along the lane and the past life, returned to continue my writing. I am no more the man, I have been, I have faced a lot of changes and learned to accept the changes, no longer by commemorating the events will sensitise me.
The paper is presented in lucid style of my spell through depression, how I managed to get rid of it, through support and motivation from others.

    War, losing a family member, financial problems, preparation for final exams, these are just one of many reasons that may cause a person to upset, sad or worry. Consequently, it can be serious enough to cause a mental disease, which is what we normally call "depression". Women statistically are the majority group who is diagnosed each year with either anxiety or depression. It is nearly twice as many as men. In addition, they have some unique risk factors for the disorders; they are also facing some variations of depression specific to their sex (Dennis and Charles 147). There’re several major causes of depression that may occur in women involving biological (i.e. genetics, hormones), social (social roles, discrimination), psychological (personality development), and other factors (life events) (Ernest and William 542). While these factors may be discussed independently, the combination of them with the biological aspect may increase women’s vulnerability to depression. The biological cause might be one of the primary factors that leads to the disease and also distinguishes men’s with women’s easy-to-be-infected possibility.…
