PART ONE<\/strong> <\/h4>\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

I had the honour of interviewing 9 men and my first question for all of them was \u201dWithout googling, are you able to tell me when men\u2019s mental health month is?\u201d 1 out of 9 knew the answer.<\/p>\n

Men\u2019s mental health month is November. This month. <\/h4>\n

Unless I went out of my way to check for it, I did not see any information about men\u2019s mental health from men, but I did see posts such as \u201dno one cares about men\u2019s mental health\u2019<\/em>\u2018 when women had various conversations on women\u2019s health. It is not the responsibility of women to spread awareness on men\u2019s mental health, but the men themselves.<\/p>\n

Men\u2019s mental health should be discussed in the house, school, church, mosques, football etc and because these discussions are never had, men navigate life in a way that does\u2019t equip them to regulate feelings and emotions which is mainly due to environment & this has various consequences.<\/p>\n

I came across YouTuber Chiso<\/a> who covers men\u2019s health and I reached out, asking his views on mental health he said to me; <\/p>\n

\n

\u2026being born in Nigeria in my early years I got taught to be strong mentally and physically. I always say no one is coming to save you. Unfortunately where I was born that was reality for majority. So I have always carried the thought of no matter how hard I think things might be think how harder it is over there. Being in that state of mind you take most days as the same bad or good. Which drives you to push harder. You tend to find most men\u2019s problems can be solved with money. The remainder is just life. WE already know life is unpredictable so the aim is to limit stress as much as possible. You will never have the answers to every single thing. Once you are comfortable knowing this and comfortable within yourself things flow better and easier.\u201d <\/p>\n

Chiso<\/a> \u2013 Youtuber <\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The channel promotes the \u2018nobody cares, work harder\u2019 ideology, which has some truth to it. The \u201chard work\u201d men have to do due to societal pressures is different, but the point is that if you work without ever checking in with yourself, everything you worked so hard for will amount to nothing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Work harder, work smarter, and yes, as a man<\/em>, make sure you\u2019re set, but you also need to take care of your mind.\u00a0I need you to understand that taking care of yourself doesn\u2019t make you less of a man, it may just save your life. <\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

You can\u2019t fix a broken leg with sheer willpower; the same applies to mental illnesses.
Each time I see that a young man is struggling mentally, it hurts me a little bit because, firstly, my brother comes to mind, and secondly, that young man potentially has no one to talk to due to the stigma around men\u2019s mental health. I know he\u2019s struggling in an almost uncomfortable way.\u00a0
When men\u2019s health issues are not addressed, young men fall into the wrong crowd, which results in years of unresolved trauma when all he probably needed was a listening ear, a hug and maybe a few sessions with a therapist\/ psychologist.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Millennial MEN and Gen-Z men need to start creating safe spaces FOR YOUNG MEN TO speak on mental and emotional wellness.<\/h4>\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

\u201dNo one cares about men\u2019s mental health. No,\u00a0you<\/strong>\u00a0don\u2019t care. Your friends are down, you tell them to stop being sad and to get brave. Your boy is crying, and your response is \u201dMen don\u2019t cry\u201d\u2019 \u2013 then when your friend commits suicide, the first thing usually said is \u201dI never knew\u201d \u2013 you did, you just didn\u2019t care enough to lend a listening ear.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although this sounds exaggerated, the statistics support its validity. This needs to stop because this could be detrimental to someone\u2019s mental health. Men overlook men\u2019s mental health, and that change starts from you, within you, into your communities.<\/p>\n

Using the gym as a coping mechanism is not enough; your problems will still be there after your 2-hour session. It gets to a point where, as a grown-up man, you should be able to regulate your emotions with healthy coping mechanisms because, at the end of the day, aren\u2019t you the ones who told me no one is coming to save you?\u00a0<\/p>\n

To conclude Part 1<\/em>, I highly recommend the movie \u201dAnalyze This\u201d from 1999. A mob boss Paul Vitti is<\/a> embarrassed he has to see a psychiatrist but throughout the film you see him adjust to the idea of getting help.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide them.\u201d\u00a0\u2014 Alex Karras<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Part two will include discussions and interviews I had with the men that got to be involved in this project, the blog is out Sunday 30\/11\/25. See you then!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
