Thank you, this is perfect for me.
Seems like every single one of the presenters is a women or has female pronouns. Seeing as males are three times more as likely to be diagnosed I find this curious.
I don’t want to stereotype others, so I am going to stereotype myself. Ignoring my issues or thinking that I can just “power through” them without help is kind of a curse for our gender. While I do try to give and take support where applicable, the primal instinct of being a “macho man” is still in the back of my mind. More often than not, women tend to be a bit more supportive and caring about mental help.
Ok, that is probably more of a generalization rather than a stereotype, but I think you might understand what I mean.
So you are saying only women can help men?
Not always. I am just saying men like me can be a bit bull-headed when taking about these kinds of issues, s’all.
Well, us men really need to start taking responsibility for our actions. Including our bull-headedness.
Aye. I couldn’t have said it better myself.
I’m going! I went last year and it as GREAT! Claire puts on a great event!
Did you forget to include the link or am I just blind today? This sounds really cool so I want to be sure haha.
