Funded Activity Summary

Rethinking women's depression through narratives of recovery and wellbeing. This research project explores the growing problem of depression for women in Australia from a new angle. It investigates how rural and urban women at different life stages talk about their own experiences of recovery from depression and what helped to improve their emotional wellbeing. By considering the social and gendered context of women's depression this project will contribute to a broader evidence base for prevention policies and treatment practices. It will also enable different ways of approaching women's depression amongst health professionals, families and communities.
