Men's mental health awareness month is observed every June

Men's Mental Health Awareness Month is observed every June. It is dedicated to breaking the stigma around emotional vulnerability, highlighting the unique mental health challenges men face, and encouraging them to seek professional support. Societal pressures and traditional masculinity norms often condition men to suppress their emotions, leading to silent struggles with stress, anxiety, and depression. The Stigma: Nearly half of all men feel more depressed than they admit to the people in their lives. The Crisis: Men are significantly less likely to seek professional therapy than women. Tragically, males account for nearly 80% of all suicide deaths globally.
