A large-scale analysis involving more than 100,000 individuals across seven countries suggests that cohabiting couples have a lower risk of depression than single people.
The researchers do not advocate rushing into marriage, emphasizing that personal circumstances and broader social factors play a significant role in mental health.
The study emphasizes the need for culturally sensitive interventions to address depression vulnerability among unmarried individuals, particularly those at higher risk based on various factors.
Unmarried but cohabiting participants were considered 'married' in this study, demonstrating the complexity of relationship dynamics and their impact on mental health.
