*Description:*
Women are diagnosed with "mental illnesses", such as depression, at
twice the rate of men. The basis of women's mental distress is often
seen as biological, but many feminists believe society strongly
influences women's mental health. Despite this, in recent years
treatment for women's mental distress has often come in the form of
antidepressants. While direct to consumer marketing of prescription
medications is illegal in most countries, pharmaceutical companies use
the internet as a global marketing tool for their psychotropic
medications. In this paper I describe and analyse several
antidepressant websites and examine whether these sites are marketing
their products specifically to women. I will also ask if these sites
are attempting to market their drugs to women already diagnosed as
mentally ill, and/or creating new markets for their drugs by trying to
convince more women they have a mental illness.
