Every 13 minutes a man in the US takes their own lives. Men grow up in a world where showing emotions, asking for help, or feeling as though they aren’t doing enough is seen as sign of weakness. While the tough exterior everyone else sees stays, internally they start to wither away. Until they are left hollow and lost, with the only way out seeming to be leaving this world behind.
It’s not just important to raise awareness about mental health, but also to let the men in our lives know they are safe if they open up. They don’t have to suffer in silence.
