Depression, sex, and age
Depression can strike anybody at any age. However, women are more likely than men to suffer from depression. And it's not uncommon for women and men to face depression at different times in their lives and for different reasons. Sex and age can also help determine how someone expresses and copes with symptoms. Treatments vary with age, as well.
