If you're a man reading this, you'll want to pay particular attention if you are feeling anywhere near depressed. I read an article recently which pointed out that depression affects about 6 million American men each year. This number could be much higher because men seem to be more reluctant than women to seek help. I know it took a while before I finally made the call for help several years ago - and I'm glad I did.
The article addresses the following:
- What depression is
- Symptoms of male depression
- When male depression is not treated
- Suicide risk
- Seeking professional treatment
The article is written by Carol Weiss, a licensed marriage and family therapist with more than 30 years of experience treating men and women suffering from depression.
