Mental health is a hot topic of conversation. Anyone can struggle with their mental health and when it comes to male mental health, often our issues are taken out of context. Men are supposed to "suck it up" and "men don't cry." According to Mental Health America "More than 4 times as many men as women die by suicide in the U.S. In 2010, 38,364 Americans died by suicided, and over 79% of these suicides were men." Tune in as I talk about different factors that affect men's mental health and the importance of male friendships for our mental well-being.
