Men’s Mental Health: You Are Not Alone

“I can’t hide myself

I don’t expect you to understand

I just hope I can explain

What it’s like to be a man

It’s a lonely road, and they don’t care about what you know

It’s not about how you feel but what you provide inside that home.”


— Dax, “To Be a Man”

This is the chorus of Dax’s song “To Be a Man”—and I know some husbands out there can really relate.

The pressure.

The silence.

The weight of holding it all together by providing.


So as we wrap up June and Men’s Health Month, I want to speak directly to my brothers:


You don’t have to walk through it alone.


Taking care of your mental and physical health isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom. It’s strength.


And it’s one of the greatest things you can do for yourself, your marriage and your family.


No matter where you are in this season—or how deep the struggle feels right now—know this:


There is hope. And there is help.


Let’s talk about it.
