AB Since  depression  is  approximately  two  times  more  common  in  women  than  in  men,  clinicians  should  be  alert  to  its  symptoms  in  their  female  patients.  Symptoms  include  depressed  mood,  loss  of  interest  in  activities,  sleep  disturbance,  change  in  appetite  or  weight,  psychomotor  retardation,  difficulty  concentrating,  feelings  of  worthlessness,  and  thoughts  of  suicide  (see  also  Chapter  25-12).  Low  energy  or  fatigue  is  a  particularly  common  symptom  in  women.
