Obesity is a common comorbidity associated with mental illness. It is important to understand the many ways weight gain and obesity can impact the cause and course of mental illness in women, with a special focus on vulnerable life stages. Women seem disproportionally impacted by the weight gain side effects of medications, and issues such as weight gain are more likely to impact symptoms of mental illness, impacting self-esteem. This article summarizes the existing literature on the associations between women's mental health and obesity. Understanding this association will lead to better health outcomes.
