As harsh as it sounds male ego needs to know its place. If certain blokes are too emotionally immature to open up about their common mental health experiences it’s on them more than anyone (I’m also coming at this topic from a cultural perspective so bear that in mind before you start coming for me).

That's a very harsh take on things (the last part) if you dont mind me saying.
Also, it's the stigma that stops men seeking help, and is the reason they turn to the only way they think is best for all. Suicide.
