June is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month. Join us in breaking the stigma and supporting mental wellness for all men.
Real strength comes from acknowledging our struggles
Men are often taught from a young age to suppress their emotions and "tough it out." This cultural conditioning leads many men to suffer in silence rather than seek help.
During Men's Mental Health Awareness Month in June, we challenge these harmful stereotypes and encourage open conversations about mental wellness.

Common questions about men's mental health
Men are significantly less likely than women to seek help for mental health issues due to societal expectations, stigma, and traditional masculine norms. Raising awareness helps break down these barriers, encourages help-seeking behavior, and ultimately saves lives.
Men commonly experience depression, anxiety, substance abuse disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Men may also express mental health symptoms differently than women, often through anger, irritability, or reckless behavior rather than sadness.
Listen without judgment, express your concern without criticism, encourage professional help, and be patient. Avoid phrases like "man up" or "just get over it." Instead, validate their feelings and remind them that seeking help is a sign of strength.
Common signs include increased anger or irritability, isolation from friends and family, changes in sleep or appetite, loss of interest in activities, increased risk-taking behaviors, excessive drinking or drug use, and talking about feeling hopeless or trapped.
