Let's talk about real issues out in world. I would really like for people to shed light on the patriarch society which has normalised men not talking about their issues, feelings, emotions etc. Why is it considered that not sharing anything and keeping everything inside of and letting it build up is some sort of achivement?
I mean nothing sucks more than this. Not having someone to talk to and worse not being able to because that's how it is built up in your roots. I don't think suffocating with everything inside of you makes you strong. No person is more broken than the one who is suffocated on the inside.
Yes, being able to handle everything on your own is good and a really strong choice but not being able to ask help or not being able to communicate what goes in your heart and mind is not strong. Neither is that a strong mindset and nor it is a strong heart. People need to realise that this needs to be changed this is not something to normalise.
84 men a week take their own lives. 75% of suci*es are men. 25% of men die with mental illness. Men are less likely to ask for help or get help and yet we are not talking about it.
We need to normalise men speaking up. Men speaking their hearts and minds out. It should bot be considered weak because it take a lot of courage to trust someone to let it out, to speak the actual truth.
Men keep suffocating on the inside and somehow they make the lie truth to themselves that they are alright, they need nobody. Rather than men complaining about women being the one's who can't hide their feelings or any emotions they should focus on that they need to be their for each other and try making the world a better place where actually people listen and they talk. They be there for each other. Not only men even most women have this pathetic thought of men being able to open up is weak. Talking about something you go through or something you fe takes a lot of courage and I'm proud of people talking about themselves and I'm proud of people actually listening and understanding rather than making them feel pathetic about speaking up. From me to all the men or women out there who are going through something and they have hard time opening up, I know it takes a lot and it's okaay. You'll be fine and I hope you can speak up and not regret it. I really hope people would be there for others who are suffering or struggling out there and I really hope every person on this planet has someone to talk to without the wall up.
