Same with their bullshit pharma drugs but yeah it's a multi billion dollar industry which want to make profit not solving problems and helping peoples. If they solve their problems (or really help them doing it) they lose a customer, so it's better for them if you keep talking and taking their drugs. Then they tell you the most important thing is to work again but of course so they can "monetize" you twice. One time as a pharma customer and one time as a tax slave.

In the U.S., there are some cases where the kids live with their fathers and visit their moms. Most kids WANT to live with their dads in America because dads are easier to get along with. If the kids have a preference, perhaps they can speak out and let the judge know. I have met 4 men (I'm a woman) in the past year who all had custody of their kids. They paid no alimony as the kids lived with them full time. Just visited mom or rarely saw her because she left them. Brilliant ! And the kids were happier.

I'm in my late 30s, my relationship of 8 years ended in late August. It wasn't perfect, but she was my best friend and the love of my life. She said our differences were too great. My sister has a drug problem, my parents and I get along, but we aren't close. I have a good job, I own a home, I tick the surface level boxes, but the loneliness is crippling. Before my 8 year I have been deceived by many women in my life. I'm back out in the dating scene now, some hits, mostly misses, but whenever I miss it always goes back to the girl I loved for 8 years. I eat well, I'm very active and athletic still, but I cry in my car coming home from the gym at least once a week when I listen to music. I'm tired of the pain. I'm tired of the same routine without her. I'm tired of the loneliness. I just want my old life back. I've come to terms this won't happen, I need to move on with my life, but I just can't bring myself to keep doing it. People can call me a "bitch" or a "pussy" but I'm tired of trying to prove people wrong. They can call me those names and that's perfectly fine. I just want the pain to end.

I'm from the construction line of work, in the last 15 months i have lost 10 of my work friends out of a group of 30 men to suicide.

Last month i came into work finding a work friend hanging from a scaffolding by his neck, he took his life. No one talked about it we just carried on working they just removed his body from the scaffolding like a lump of meat and said ok boys carry on working. Men have become disposable.

im almost 23 years old and i have lived alone for 5 years and i know nobody. i was an orphan and i grew up in care homes, i never got to go to school and i spent some 30 months in a young offenders institution on remand for a crime i was falsely accused of. since i got out of there 5 years ago, i havent met anyone. i havent met anyone the same age as me since i was 12 and i have never socialised or been to parties or had relationships. every day i look out of my window and i see people walking together, i see groups of 7-8 teenagers, and it is like i dagger to the heart to look at them and know that i have never even know 7 people before. i have never been part of a group. i never learned to socialise because i have never done it before. and now i have to live with the reality that there are 14 year olds who go to school, get to live at home with their parents, they socialise they party, they fuck people, they know other people the same age as them. and i will never be able to experience any of that. what is the point in being alive when i have no access to humans and no contact with anyone else? what is the point in being alive when i am almost 23 and havent lived yet?

[@andybytheway]

I've lost 4 close friends to suicide in the past 5 years, now after the first one we all talked about how we could stop it from happening again and we said we should be talking about it more, yet it happened another 3 times. Men talking about their feelings will not solve this issue, there are other things at play. Did men talk more about their feelings 50 years ago when they killed themselves in much smaller numbers? Did they fuck. The problem, I believe, is rooted in the culture of "I don't need no man!", the constant demonisation of men and hostility towards masculinity (from pre-school age), feminist bullshit that essentially makes men feel useless, unwanted, unloved and alone.

[@derek85581lj]

andybytheway thats how I feel, feel like no one needs me, that I have no purpose so whats the point

[@AceGoodheart]

andybytheway I think you're correct. Our culture is changing and it's having a detrimental affect on men. Women don't need men anymore. They can support themselves especially with the help of child support. They don't need a man. If they need physical love women can get that easily with no strings attached. Life has no purpose for a man if he's not needed. What's the point in living if all you do is go to work and come home to an empty house. Loneliness and solitude will eventually break a man. Even the Bible says "it's not good that man should be alone." And, "he who finds a wife finds a good thing."

[@PeteS_1994]

We both need each other. At my workplace I notice some women are really good at picking up how others feel, if they are sleeping properly etc. I think we also need the nuclear family and equal balance of roles, I don't think a housewife is actually bad since a child needs attention and quality is better than quantity. We can't do everything on our own. There are women who can do stereotypically male stuff and vice versa. I think the problem with modern society is that it is too self oriented and doesn't focus on the big picture of how things work.

Ofcourse also depends on which country people live because some countries just dont give women so much rights as in west, in this case men are expeted to work as a horse what also can increase suicide rate of men. Also maybe by nature men are way too brave than women to get rid of their own life. So i still wonder why men are suicidal more than women..

Its not purpose. Purpose is made. Men make things. Its not because of pain, men have a higher pain tolerance than people think. Its because we are hated. We are hated for what we are. We are loved for what we do, but hated for what we are. And we are better than women. And because of that simple fact, women hate us. Women make up majority voters. Men's rights is a non issue for women until no men are left. Suicide is a man's way of showing his discontent for society that hates him.

Let's spread awareness of male depression and get more resources for them ! I have only just recently picked up on this extremely important topic.

Medications help and really take the edge off of the emotional pain, I know from experience.I have Major Depressive Disorder but I am doing great thanks to meds and friends. But, I really feel that Male Support Groups once a week and a good therapist or good friend to confide in will give the break- through that men need. As a woman, I wish that I could HUG each and every one of you ! So proud to hear the openness of the courageous men here !

No. Therapists are more or less useless for men. Men are and women are so different that its just not compareable. Talking does nothing for us. Talk is just talk.

Men needs the issue that is the problem gone, but most things that causes someone to be suicidal cant be fixed.

Suicide is so hard to deal with when your one of the ones that's left behind to pick up all the pieces. Hopefully they are just no longer suffering.

it is time to go soon nothing makes sense anymore we all put a brave face i put on a smiley face but deep down I am not in control any more

[@joshdando170]

Stay strong Craig and find someone to talk to

[@deemays12]

You talk to people over and over and over and it's all the same.

[@terrib.1801]

Do you have access to a counselor, healthcare provider, doctor, nurse, Urgent Care Center, church ? If so, please go because this is temporary even though it does not seem like it. Medication works ! It really helps minimize the pain to where you can figure out how to get back in control. I noticed a difference within 2 weeks, slowly things didn't seem as bad or hopeless and I started feeling in control of some things. After a while, I slowly raised my dosage and found the best state of mind for myself. I was able to function and be happy again with meds but I also needed to talk to a counselor to work through some of my own stuff. Seriously, meds really work! Also talking to someone who knows how to really help. It takes some time, we are all fallible, but it's worth it when you get the right counselor.

I'm sorry... I really, really am. For everything that happened and what it does to You and family. BUT... You are a big, big man. Your cause is huge. Thank You !

[@usersss100]

i feel happy for your dad, i really do. he is in a happier place now for sure. i believe he has done all he could, rationalized with himself for a long time before doing the inevitable. the smile he had is a testament of him feeling free. The living should celebrate that he is free from all the troubles he has had.

Dude, you can’t go walking in front of a lorry or, like me, trying to get in front of a train. Think of the poor driver, they’d be traumatized for life. We can’t do that to our truckies

[@blsi4037]

Interesting points being made in the comment section, I would like to add my take on one aspect of this: Men need each other. Men need friends. Our culture of individualism, while holding merits on its own, to me, seems to have eroded the social fabric that has been ingrained in our biology. We relied on each other to survive the plains of Africa, we relied on our neighbors for something as simple as a cup of sugar, we formed tribes, villages, communities, etc. for all the same reason. We need each other. Unfortunately, because this fabric seems to have been lost, and it's almost stigmatized if men talk about their feelings to one another. "Man up", or other sayings like that, can damage the psyche of a man, and apparently it seems to be doing that. Please feel free to expand upon anything I said, or add your own insight into it. Much thanks, and stay strong brothers, we're all in this together.

[@Mereship]

I’ll expand upon this, since your input was insightful. So many men in the comment section blaming women on their feeling suicidal. Do these men realize that first, they don’t have to get a woman pregnant? They can either not have sex or use a condom. It’s infuriating seeing men blame women for them “getting pregnant.” Did their sperm just leave their body when they weren’t paying attention and slip in the woman? Ridiculous. The overall message I take from so many men blaming the women for these feelings is take responsibility for your own actions. You chose to get that person pregnant, or marry them, or live with them. You choose who you want to be around in life, and you need to be responsible for your decisions. All of those comments just feel like the men shoving their decisions and responsibilities off on a woman because they don’t want any blame. My message is just be accountable for your own actions.

[@blsi4037]

@@Mereship That's a good point. Would you agree that improvement starts with acknowledgement of one's actions? Like you have stated, life is in our own hands, and ultimately we steer our own life.

[@Mereship]

@@blsi4037 absolutely. Acknowledgment of one’s actions and understanding that you can take new actions to put yourself in a different situation if you choose. You can also choose a frame of mind to be in regardless of your situation. There are lots of videos and books about this. Viktor Frankl has a good book on this. Sometimes you are forced into certain situations, like he was in a concentration camp. The choice at that point is what you make of it and what you let your mind do.

[@blsi4037]

I’m sorry to hear about your father. Based on me talking to other people and them telling me this is just a temporary thing yadda yadda yadda, I’m telling you that there was nothing you could do for your dad, except force him to continue to endure for everyone else’s peace of mind. Sounds like he put a really honest and solid life effort to getting to the bottom of his issues with his education and everything else. I can relate. I’m 43. Been kicking this can down the road a really long time now. I’m sorry for your loss. It’s not easy on anyone involved.

[@justinhembree351]

Thank you for sharing and it’s true because the only reason I’m here is because I don’t want to hurt my family. The pain is absolutely unbearable

[@2Askew84]

I always feel alone even when people are near me

[@mao3057]

Im in the same boat as your dad... Nobody really cares about how men feel. Talking about it just makes things worse, as it will be used against us, we'll be seen as weak and sensitive and nobody is interested in week and sensitive men. This is why we have to live our lives with a mask on pretending to be tough even when we're hurting inside. Some of us feel so much pain, it becomes unbearable. I'm tired of hurting and being in pain. The only reason why I'm still here is because if I were to off myself, I'd cause the same pain and grief to my family. And this is a big problem for people like me and everyone else who is depressed and in pain. If I kill myself, others will suffer and feel the same pain and grief that I'm feeling, but I'm tired of feeling this way, I'm tired of hurting, I want to rest. Do I keep suffering for their sake? or do I end it and ignore everyone else? Some of us choose to continue suffering alone, until we snap and can't anymore. Nobody can help

[@addycfm]

Im only 15, ive been thinking about taking my own life cause it's just to much. My family has completely disowned me all of their friends hate me too my sisters exclude me from everything even my dog, high school is too much I'm making my life choices at 15 what I wanna be when im older and its not looking that good. I always dream of dying in space just floating away, from everyone. The only thing keeping me from not committing suicide is close friends. I've never talked about it to anyone ever since that first thought.

[@PaulMcGregorVideos]

+Addy you're 15, you have so much to live for which you don't know about just yet. Speak to those close friends, and understand that what you're feeling right now will get better.

[@addycfm]

I would speak to close friends and family if they weren't the problem

[@crusadinalldaylong5591]

Addy I am quite young too. My whole life I wanted to study physics, but now things that I couldn't control barred this path. Basically my entire life purpose is gone. Plus so much stress that I am starting to hallucinate. I just can't take it any longer. I endured bullying for 7 years, I never thought the system could break me. After I came out of the pit of despair that was most of my school time I felt invincible, I made it through this, what could beat me now? A single number, decided by other people, that I had zero control over did it.

[@celluswasgaming2k345]

Yup

[@sandras1212]

Addy Always remind yourself tomorrow will be a better day. You are so young and things will get better. Give life a chance and reach out to supportive people. There are a lot of organizations out there to help youth. You will see there are a lot of good people out there. You have just as much a right to be on this earth as any body else.

[@rebeccav4478]

I am so sorry for your loss!!! When I get to the point of wanting to END myself, it's because the emotional pain is far beyond what I can handle. I don't know if there's a difference between male/female suicide, and I'm not a man .... but I can share this ... when you think NOBODY CARES, then you're in trouble!

[@accountjustforwatching]

The topic of suicide makes me really sad because I feel like I just can’t escape it and the thoughts that weigh your mind every day, the stigmas and the sad thing that no matter where you turn everyone is angry at you when all you want is for your pain to end, everyone is angry and everyone seems to think your so weak and selfish when they aren’t you, it hurts and sometimes I get really sad when I just think about depression itself, the fact that I’m still here, still feeling, and that I don’t feel completely safe, just how it feels sometimes throughout the day

[@carlososcarcomedy]

A buddy of mine took his life this weekend. Depression is a killer.

[@grayshus6706]

I've had severe treatment-resistant depression for 22 years. Literally not a single waking moment free of it. Multiple hospitalizations, shock treatments. Tried everything. The mental pain is constant and I often fear I'm losing my mind. I've had suicidal thoughts every day for 3 years since my ex of 26 years kicked me out. Barely get to see my daughter. Ex is highly abusive. I'm still here. Why? I don't know. Can't do it to my 13 year old daughter.

[@robertwatson2834]

Men....DO NOT GET MARRIED!!! Unless you have a great girl, which is a rarity, It offers you nothing except the chance to lose half your shit and then some. Then, you lead a zero existence of being broke, miserable, working for the ex. A truly lifeless life. No wonder so many divorced men end it.

[@Loopy636]

I’ve never had any goals. Any real friends, just people with a similar sense of humor. My dad is a pedophile in prison and my mom is paranoid schizophrenic. My grandparents, who raised me, think I’m weak and pathetic because I feel the way I do. Last year I brought myself to a mental hospital as a last ditch effort. All that happened was I got locked in a rook for two weeks. Didn’t talk to anyone about anything. I used to run from police for fun because I enjoy absolutely nothing. Would still be but I crashed. Putting my $21,000 in debt when I can’t even afford to eat every day. I completely understand that is my fault. But a life insurance policy can do more for my family than I ever can.
