It's that time of year. Calendars are full, meetings are frequent, and free time is scarce. In times like these, it is important we remember there are people we can reach out to when we are feeling overwhelmed. Don't let yourself go through a stressful time alone. Be it a friend, family member, coworker, or even a stranger, reaching out is always better than suffering in silence.

June is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, highlighting the ongoing silent epidemic among men. Studies have found that men are almost four times more prone to commit su***de compared to women, but the former find it considerably harder to access professional help.

Why is that so?
- The Stereotype: Traditional societal pressure to “be a man” and deal with any issues silently.
- The Causes: Severe occupational stress, financial problems, and loneliness.

Countless men have been dealing with very deep-seated issues involving mental health issues. However, all of these struggles could lie dormant beneath the surface of normal behavior.

Reach out, join a support group, or call a crisis line if you think you may need help!

The world is waiting for what you’ll do next. Go do great things.

Have you ever assumed someone else would step in a situation to help so you shouldn’t? Bystander effect is where individuals are less likely to offer help when others are present. This happens due to fear to intervene, the believe someone else will do it, or judgement should they do an action incorrectly or make a mistake. Instead, don’t wait. Take action if you can. You could make all the difference.
