I will watch this (which is not surprising considering the focus of my posts in the past five years).

Bringing awareness is great but this is old news. What’s surprising is that some years ago, if a man were to talk about male issues people would literally get mad. Some still do.

I knew it was bad, but I did not expect half, approximately. Yeah, it’s a video, but it just speaks for itself.

Well, I’m # 4 in this thread and I don’t wish to be dead. Who here are the two that wish they were?

I’m same but different on this

That just means you’re not working out hard enough. True sign of a good workout is wishing you were dead right after :upside_down_face:

Totally understood his point of view; would have chosen targeted rather than random…

It always comes back to Super Squats, doesn’t it?

Does having a professor question your sobriety after squat day count?

Well then half of you wants to die, your lower half. Right in line with the subject, so you can empathize.

They’ll get their wish.

I’ve gotten a surprising amount of pushback on this site alone lol.

I said it in my other thread, but men would do best to operate under the assumption that no one cares about your problems and no one’s coming to help. I believe this is a fundamental mentality to approach manhood with to be successful.

Corollary to this, it’s not exactly a good thing that this is the best way to approach life as a man.


It’s been said before, but men are only loved if they provide something. Even then, many are not.

I mean, we have discussed it before.
If everything men do/attempt to do/very nature is criticized incessantly (and it is), that outcome is very predictable.
I have never planned to/tired to hurt myself, but have come close a number of times and can easily see how that next step would be taken.

It’s not only men. I had a friend that jumped into a avenue two years ago. She was a good girl but depression is a silent desease. Our generation is doomed by social media. There is a correlation.

Before burying a fiance, I could not understand addicts or those that took their own life.

Afterwards, I definitely could.

Now, with children that depend on me - I will fight and claw for every last breath here until my job of raising them to be independent and successful is done.

Children have given me purpose and the desire to live and thrive. They are my responsibility and greatest source of anxiety, but also my greatest joy and achievement.

Everyone here knows women commit suicide. However men commit far more suicide.

Having kids definitely helps and is the thing that has prevented me from going further than is healthy. Regardless of how I feel, they need me, so it’s my duty to work through my shit.

Thankfully, my wife encourage me to talk to doctors and get help too.

you need to discover your masculinity - the way God made you to be.
strong masculinity is an amazing thing there is. the current generation lacks a strong identity and that is on purpose by the planners above. strong men are dangerous to the system.
as the leader of my family - i couldn’t be happier in the place I am. I give 0 fucks about the attacks on my masculinity and the feminist drive. they will self destruct sooner or later
