The Yellow Wall-Paper shows a traumatized middle-class woman's exhibiting signs of trauma because of the society’s expectations on her (Aksehir 2008). Her traumatizing experiences as a female reflect as a hallucination of a helpless individual who is trapped in the yellow wallpaper in her room (Aksehir 2008). The period in the novel represents the period when women are inferior to men physically, mentally and intellectually. The cultural, racial, religious and other pressures subdued women to a good extent. Young girls were supposed to follow their mother’s path of cooking, cleaning and child caring and are supposed to become good house wives as they grow up. Women were considered as feeble compared to men. They were confined to the jobs that require less labor. Maternity, the biological and natural role of women has been considered as their one and only role. In the novel the narrator was confined to her and was not permitted to have any outside contact. This pushed her to depression and finally made her mad. We can see that this mental depression was enforced into the narrator by the society around her. Her life was like that of a butterfly that is trying to get out of the cocoon to show its true colors. We can see her striving, throughout the play, and finally collapsing.
