LET'S Talk About Men's Mental, Psychological, Emotional, Financial, Health And Well-being

It's Father's day today and also men's world mental health day, also in line with the #samhangout weekend experience were we Nigerians gather to talk about certain key issues that concerns us as a people and the world at large.

when it comes to men's mental health and wellbeing it's an aspect of life that seems abnormal talking about it, these perception was created by our society because of a background knowledge and understanding of who a man is and the product of that is the reason why the society favors the women folks more because of a certain believe about them.

if a man and a woman happen to be in the same situation the society will favor the woman over the man, during the Titanic rescue women and children were first rescue to the life boat the men don't worry you can just find a place and die, you just make sure your seeds are preserved, similar to every other case scenario

these ideology has shifted our perception of the fact that men are also human, the have souls and spirit they have emotions, psychological needs too, financial freedom, a shoulder to lean on, someone to talk to, men also grow weak, they too need that support, that encouragement, someone that can look them straight on the eyes and said you can do this,, let's through this together.

this is why I feel the very first gift God gave man after saddling him with a RESPONSIBILITY, had pity and gave him a gift called a woman.

with the ideology that men are super heroes, they have super powers, men have elastic hearts. they can go on and on ofcourse they have the energy, the stamina, strength to run through anything and so as a man you're not allow to cry, you're not allow to display your weakness publicly, you're the head, the leader, creator of lives.

my take on the weekends hang out with Hive account@samostically is that when was the last time as a lady put out a call your dad not to request anything but a soft spoken simple words of appreciation for everything, the endless rigorous hard work, doing everything under the sun to see that they are all okay, or a male friend whether in relationship or not, organize a date fully paid with soft nice compliments not to demand later but a sincere heart felt way of saying Thank you for everything, you're valued and cherished too.

men also have emotions, they cry silently, they're also experienced fatigue, doing everything to keep the food coming, men also need complimenting, after a hard days work, sometimes for weeks and months they need to come home to the warm embrace of their families, a sweet show of comfort and appreciation, that alone boost their morale and confidence cause men's primary concern is the provision, protection, the safety of their families even to the detriment of their own health and wellbeing ......
