We fully support Men’s Mental Health Awareness all year round. However, being that June is #mensmentalhealthawarenessmonth let’s focus on an issue that is hardly ever talked about. 23 per 100,000 men in the United States commit suicide every year. While only 5.7 per 100,000 women in the United States commit suicide every year. Why such a drastic difference? Well, men typically are afraid to talk about how they’re feeling and what they’re going through. Men typically have many outside pressures and forces pulling on them all at the same time, which leads to depression and anxiety. These pressures of life are hard to deal with in the first place. However, if you cannot talk to someone about it, it makes you feel alone in your struggles. MEN, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Reach out to significant other, family or friends. Let them know what you are going through and how you are feeling. Get help. There are many different resources out there. We fully support the app, WhiteFlag App (not sponsored at all. We just support their mission.) Call the suicide hotline: 988 Reach out to a specialist You are not alone. We are with you. Stay strong, men. We have a lot riding on our shoulders at any given moment, but we are here to help one another through life. #mensmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #focusonrealissues #menneedhelp
