TRIGGER WARNING!!! On this episode I mention topics of depressing, self harm and suicide. Please seek help if you need it and also make sure to log off the episode or scroll past the parts that could trigger you.
The topics I talk about on this episode are:
🗣It’s pride month! And it’s also men’s mental health month too!
🗣As a man if you want men’s mental health to be talked about, you can talk about it yourself.
🗣If you want others to talk about it, there are nice and productive ways to ask for that.
🗣Talking about pride will help men’s mental health and talking about men’s mental health will help reduce queerphobia as well. Because these are symptoms of the patriarchy and deconstructing it will benefit everyone
🗣Men’s mental health is currently tanking and suicide rates are rising
🗣A very big step to improving men’s mental health is deconstructing the patriarchy
🗣Men need to get more in tune with their emotions
🗣Being sassy is perfectly fine
🗣Men need to take charge of their mental health and not depend on society to help
🗣Men need to find more safe spaces to exist in the entirety of who they are
🗣Men need to decenter women
🗣You don’t owe society anything, you don’t have to be a provider or protector or anything like that
🗣Check up more on the men around you
🗣Helping men deal with the expectations of the patriarchy will help queer folks as well
