Compared to men, women are more likely to have mental health problems due to stress.

Professor Daniel Freeman of the University of Oxford, said the first systematic investigation of the mental health survey showed psychological disorders 20 to 40 percent more common in women than men.

"Stress is related to the pressure on women to be the main factor behind everything from depression to phobias," according to Professor Freeman, a clinical psychologist, told the Daily Mail.

The biggest gap in this condition is environmental factors. This certainly makes sense because women have a social role demands greater than men.

The researchers observed that domestic work is often imposed on women and women workers also tend to be low paid or even more difficult to experience career development. This will ultimately burden the woman's emotional state affects their mental health.
