There's Such A High Stigma Around Talking About Your Feelings Or Insecurities Because, Especially For Men, We Don't Want To Show That "weakness." But I'm Always Like, "ok, What Would You Rather Do: Show Weakness And Get Better, Or Continue To Get Worse And Who Knows Where That Leads?" There's Something Behind The Suicide Rate Continuing To Climb Year After Year. Why Don't We Ask For Help?
