Don't Worry It's Confidential

11 - men and mental health


Listen Later

Why are men’s feelings still taboo?

Today, I’m joined by one of my social worker friends to talk about men’s mental health. We unpack his journey into the field of social work and discuss toxic masculinity, racism, and the gender gap in therapy, in an attempt to destigmatize and normalize a range of emotions in men.

Through sharing his experience with academia, we learn about the labels that limited him, and liberated him. Through his stories about friendship, we learn the differences between male and female friendships, and how gender roles can limit romantic relationships…

And because of his vulnerability, we hope that you will be inspired to validate the feelings of everyone around you, as well as be more open with your own.
