Answer 1

Answer:

Candice is at a greater risk of developing depression.

Explanation:

One of the symptoms of depression is to have a catastofic way of interpreting reality, or what happends. If she blames herself for the bad things that happen, and thinks very low of herself all the time, this affects the possibility of having emotional stability. This way of interpreting reality as so bad and negative, bringing the bad on her, is complicated because it does not allow a person to see the good things. This inhabilitates her to promote or read the aspects of life differently, and there for take differnt actions over the problems or obstacles that are always present in everyones life.
