June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. Depression usually presents differently in men than it does in women, and it's important to be able to recognize the signs and symptoms. Instead of sadness, men often experience: -Irritability -Difficulty Sleeping -Fatigue -Loss of interest in usual activities Many men have been encouraged to “Man up!” But instead, we say, “Speak up!” to break the cycle of silence! Suicide is the #2 cause of death in men under 44 with rates on the rise for middle aged men as well. Men account for over 70% of all completed suicides so it's vital that we continue to educate all men about the importance of caring for their mental health and recognizing that vulnerability is a sign of strength, not weakness!
