Depression in men:
Men often experience depression differently than women. Instead of sadness, it frequently shows up as irritability, physical pain, or escapism.
Here is what you need to know:
The Signs: Watch for high irritability, unexplained headaches, or sudden risky behaviors.
New Dads: Paternal postpartum depression is real, often peaking 3 to 6 months after birth.
The Fix: Therapy helps men identify mental triggers and build healthy coping tools.
Reaching out for professional support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
