When we think of depression, typically we picture someone who’s sad or with low energy. But for a lot of men, it shows up differently: irritability, pulling away from people, drinking more, or throwing themselves into work. It’s not always easy to spot, even for the person going through it.
In truth , many men are taught to push feelings aside, to “man up” and keep moving. So instead of saying, “I’m struggling,” it comes out as anger, stress, or silence.
Here’s the thing: therapy isn’t just for when things hit rock bottom. It’s like a tune-up for your mental health. It helps you get ahead of stress, sort out tough emotions, and feel more like yourself again.
There’s no shame in getting support. In fact, it’s one of the strongest moves you can make.
If something feels off, trust that. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Let’s talk.
