Men are often the last people to talk to each other, silently hinting what is going on, but not always making that clear to families before taking a eye opening step towards a cry for help.

We are living in a period of time where the sqeaky hinge gets the oil, all people are equal in the eyes of the law, and the definitions that define us are in a murky water, often the noise and the resounding repitition receive the coverage to assist in bringing the momentum to the ears of change, or what people are thinking change should be, but is the irony of equlity and what is considered equal between the sexes the ingnorance of the statistics of our men taking the easy option out in the casket to the underworld.
It is a time of assurance that these things are important, but how can a change be made when men, yes that right, as equality has it, we arent winning to check out high stakes, with men receiving around 12 percent above the checking out rate of our women, some would argue that men also equally do not share the social skills of our women who are more equipt either culturally or purely as a trait that allows emotion to be handled better rather than pent out into a too hard basket that our men seem to possess.

In my travels last year, I worked with another collegue who has a vested interest in supporting men in the journey they have, and in his recollections the problem seems to be that men are working, and will allow the wheels to fall off, clamming up so tight that it is generally the women who make the effort to cry for help, often from the misreading of a shadow that crys for help, not knowing he method because the solution that isnt there is needed and the crisis has reached the door, and the relisation that it has floored the person so bad that the embarrasment of the situation becomes silent to those who can possibly help.

The sad truth for men is we dont talk as well as women:

1. Women will even in their younger years, sit together and talk about things, where men seem to just do things.
2. Men will often need softening through something to allow them to open up, with an accidental chat, or a scenario rather then a personal link to a personal situation.
3. Men often are better than women at quick and balance solutions, which is generally why male doctors will prescribe a solution rather than talk it our to find the possibilities.

We are living in a time where men are being left behind in the mental health department.
