As Mental Health Is More Widely Acknowledged, Men Still Struggle
Article here. Excerpt:
'A growing number of men are speaking up and spreading awareness about the importance of other men prioritizing mental health.
As the importance of mental health becomes more widely accepted in the United States, men are still battling the stigma that it should not be discussed.
But that changed recently when famous MMA fighter Paddy “the Baddie” Pimblett delivered a moving public message after a fight, saying he has been struggling himself.
In his post-fight speech, Pimblett spoke about a close friend of his who had taken his life only days before the fight. He urged men to talk about their issues.
“I’d rather my mate cry on my shoulder than go to his funeral," he said.
The speech was an important message to men worldwide.'
