Men are often less likely to seek help for mental health issues due to social norms, reluctance to talk, and downplaying symptoms. However, seeking help is a crucial step towards recovery and well-being. It's important to create an environment where men feel comfortable and supported in discussing their mental health. Encouraging open conversations and providing accessible resources can make a significant difference. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength and self-care.
