Feminism, motherhood and women's mental health: understandings from the social reality
Keywords
Abstract
The present study sought to understand the reality of women and the factors related to their mental health, from an understanding of the social reality faced by women in Brazil. The question that guided the development of the research was: to what extent can gender inequality impact women's mental health. The method used was deductive, starting from general understandings in order to reach particular understandings. From the bibliographic research technique, it was concluded that the social scenario builds the gateway to women's mental illness, but other issues, such as the absence of public policies aimed at women's well-being, are also contributing factors for illness.
