Helping Men Understand Themselves

& the world to understand men.

HOW ARE YOU?

(No, really…How are you?)

“I’m good.” Without taking a moment to really reflect before giving the reply. The hard reality is even if we say we are struggling will anyone care. Often we speak at men, around men but not to us.

Messaging is so confusing around masculinity and what it means to be a “good man” leaving us to feel like we have to check so many boxes to have value in society.

Men die by suicide every day in the United States

4 to 1

Men are four times more likely to die by suicide in the United States.

40%

40 % of men report having never talked to anyone about their mental health.

So where are men supposed to go?

I grew up a sensitive kid with a crippling stutter. My family was…complex is the nicest way I can put it. As a man, ‘sensitive’ didn’t feel like it was an option. So, I built a castle of protection through a tough exterior and defined my worth through external success.

I needed to make more money, have more sex, perform for larger crowds. The more I got, the worse I felt. For years I battled with depression, addiction, lying and cheating, burnout, and suicidal ideation.

But if you were to ask me how I was doing for most of my life, I would reply with, “I'm good”. I was receiving so much criticism but very little advice of what to do or where to go. And HOWMENCRY was born.
