Men’s mental health is often overlooked due to societal pressures that emphasize strength, emotional restraint, and resilience. From a young age, many boys are taught to suppress their emotions with phrases like “Man up” and “Boys don’t cry.” This creates a culture where vulnerability is seen as weakness, causing many men to hide their emotional struggles. As a result, issues like anxiety, depression, and stress go unaddressed.
The pressure to be providers and protectors can add to the burden. Men often fear that admitting emotional struggles will make them seem inadequate or less capable, which leads to isolation. Over time, this emotional repression can result in unhealthy coping mechanisms such as substance abuse or withdrawal.
To break the stigma, it’s crucial to create a supportive environment where men feel safe to talk about their mental health. By normalizing conversations around mental well-being and showing that vulnerability is a strength, we can help men seek help and prioritize their emotional health. Let’s work together to support men’s mental well-being. Download Saksham for resources and guidance.
