You're ready for a change. The way that things have been going doesn't feel sustainable. You might be feeling exhausted, anxious, down, worn out or on edge and it's taking its toll. While it may have felt that you once knew what you wanted, what you are working for and who you are now, it is isn't entirely clear anymore. It's also hard because who do you turn to with all of this? As a man, it can be isolating to be going through this without any source of direction or support. We're often conditioned to express our emotions in a very specific way (cue single tear during the Superbowl), but what happens when that isn't working?

Are you sleepwalking through life? Do you feel as though you’re just getting by? Or maybe you aren’t getting by. If you have been struggling with mental health issues, you are not alone.

People are always saying that you seem to be doing ok but they have no idea how much you struggle! Ever since the terrible thing happened you have been distracted, irritable, having nightmares, and you cry at pretty much anything. You are the friend who will always be there for others, but often feel like you are losing yourself in the process. You just want to laugh more, have good relationships, get your grades up or get better at your job. You have hope that you can feel better, but right now you feel stuck because you really don’t know how.
