Gents!! JUST for YOU! From meπ©π½ββοΈπππ½(with another Specially Invited Guest)
This is the Final Segment for November- What a month!
PART 2 of 2 - Men's MENTAL HEALTH - Do You Really Need a Therapist?
Sadly, despite the increasing need worldwide of issues concerning men's mental health, seeking "help" is still viewed with stigma and disdain.
WHY??
3 words: STIGMA , FEAR, and SHAME.π€«π₯Ίπ
π΄π½π" REAL men don't go to the doctor; only WEAK men do".
This is one of the MAJOR reasons for men , older and younger, from seeking help, seeking a listening ear, and descending into "depth of despair" and, sadly, suicide and substance abuse continue to escalate as a means of escape.
π·π·π·π·π·Please join me as I am so grateful to discuss these matters with Clinical Psychologist Mr. Krisnan Hurdle who will
π·Review those at risk
π· Describe the many ways that men can (safely and in privacy reach out to a trained therapist for assistance ) and
π·Practical methods and healthy coping strategies which not only improve self-confidence, but also improve the closest and most meaningful relationships in our lives!

I trust that you will find this information vital for you and your friends and family who may be struggling to cope with stressors.
It is a sign of COURAGEπ― , NOT weakness, to reach out when you are overwhelmed.
Remember:
π΄π½ππLISTEN! If your friend or relative is exhibiting any of these signs , listen to the unspoken word; take them seriously (suicide among older persons IS increasing)
π΄π½ππDon't just "bring it up"; start with general conversation and again: ;let them TALK!
π΄π½ππ Form a "men's only community- "MANSHED" - mentor, provide a safe space to talk freely and .... eventually suggest seeking help.
Gents; older or younger:
WE NEED YOU!πππ
YOU MATTER!πππ
What action step will you take TODAY?
πPrevention, Preparation, Protectionπ
Good vibes always!π
From my heart to yoursπ
