  • Women are not necessarily the cause of men’s issues. I don’t see how soldiers with PTSD or untreated mental issues are women’s to solve.

    A lot of issues are self-inflicted, men tend to think problems go away if you ignore them, or even worse, are oblivious to the problems. Especially in relationships. Luckily talking about mental load is becoming more common, and the smarter men, who were oblivious to that issue are stepping up. Relationships take work, also for men. If us men aren’t doing our part, I can easily see why women choose to leave.


  • Luckily I’ve never had depression.

    The prevailing attitude among men definitely seems to be “Toughen up!” Both for those with mental issues, and those non-proffesional men they open up to.

    Yeah, talking about mental health needs to be normalized. But I feel a shift is slowly coming.On Instagram I see male therapist talking about how to work on your relationships, and one of the bigger ones have 3.9 million followers

    I know at least two of my male friends that are seeing psychologists at the moment. I’ve also had 4 sessions in December. My wife and I have also had some couples therapy sessions over the last 3 or 4 years. When I talk about couples therapy to my married friends many actually get curious about it. I compare it to getting your car serviced. You get help fixing minor problems, before they cause bigger issues
