Could we improve men’s mental health?

Would more men be open to going to therapy if they had resources tailored specifically for them, and if the office had Emotional Support Animals for appointment use?

Therapy gives you the tools to help achieve that. You are completely underestimating it.

If it's one big cause that applies to millions, then no, individual therapy cannot fix that massive problem.

Yeah that's true. There's just not enough therapists.

Even if there were enough therapists, and even if they could actually help, you're still talking about fixing mental problems instead of preventing them.

It does prevent them if caught earlier. There are many that are simply incurable so idk your point.

If these mental problems arise from the living conditions of the masses, no amount of therapy can prevent them. Many that seem incurable might just be failing to escape psyche-wrecking situations.

Do you wanna cure cancer, solve global warming, and solve global hunger too while you're at it? Yeah I'd love to live in a magical perfect world too.

Okay, you have no compassion, just a therapy fetish.

And, um, yeah... let's keep working on curing cancer, too.

what the fuck are you talking about
