Again, you are showing you don't know what you're talking about. You sound very ignorant. This is a perfect example of what people mean by "toxic masculinty" or hyper masculininty.
Again, therapy goes along with anti depressants to help you work through your issues. The drugs don't make the "bad feelings" go away, it changes your chemical imbalance so you won't have suicidal thoughts and are able to actually get out of bed everyday, the physical things. Then you go to therapy and talk about things, they encourage you and help you think more positively. You take what you learn in therapy and apply it to your life. Similar to what you described in the bold. Both work together. Also, sometimes there is no "solution to their problems" because there is no event that is causing them to be depressed other than their brain chemistry being off maybe bc of genetics or maybe bc of some other substance or medication they were perscribed, which would mean they would have to take the anti depressants bc that is the only way to balance their brain chemistry. You would know that if you actually knew what you were talking about.
This has nothing to do with being raised by your mom vs both parents. There are lots of women who only have their mother who are still depressed, and there a lots of men who only have their mother and never had depression, so your little theory is off. There are millions of people of both genders who have both parents and still have mental health issues.
Maybe you'll understand if one of your male friends or family members kill themsevels instead of going to get help for their issues.
My uncle committed suicide and I myself have battled depression. I've only heard rumors of what my uncle was into (it was kinda bad if the rumors were true), but I know for myself it was because I wasn't happy and I had no idea what to do with my life to get happy. I had no one to guide me because the life I wanted to lead, as an entrepreneur, was radically different than my family and the people around me.
It wasn't until I got around like minded individuals that a fire was lit. They not only gave me a rough outline of how to accomplish my goal, more importantly they influenced me and gave me an ideal to work towards. To mold myself after.
I'm not gonna sit here and lie and say I don't ever get discouraged or depressed, but I have a good network of brothers on the same page as me now and after talking to them I work through my issues.
And I didn't have to pop xans like tic tacs to escape my feelings. I identified my problems, and I worked with other people whove been where i was trying to go , and i fixed them, because I'm a man.
The whole, "Im helpless against my overwhelming feelings" thing is distinctly woman
