Mental Health Resources
Mental health is extremely important. Men tend to have a more difficult time openly speaking about their mental health than women do. Use these mental health resources for men to learn how to communicate what you are feeling about your mental state.
ManTherapy.org – Therapy Resources for Men
Part of a multi-agency effort, including the Colorado Office of Suicide Prevention and Cactus, Man TherapyÒ is giving men a resource they desperately need. A resource to help them with any problem that life sends their way, something to set them straight on the realities of suicide and mental health, and in the end, a tool to help put a stop to the suicide deaths of so many of our men.
National Institute of Mental Health – Men and Mental Health
While mental illnesses affect both men and women, the prevalence of mental illnesses in men is often lower than women. Men with mental illnesses are also less likely to have received mental health treatment than women in the past year. However, men are more likely to die by suicide than women, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Recognizing the signs that you or someone you love may have a mental disorder is the first step toward getting treatment. The earlier that treatment begins, the more effective it can be.
In the world of COVID-19, daily life as we’ve known it has been flipped on its head. But there are some steps we can take every day to look after ourselves and others. Our focus is to provide reliable information to guide and support us all through these turbulent times.
