Why Mental Health Is Crucial for Men – Mental Health Awareness Month

Men are taught , more often than not to be big boys, no

support for proper emotional health, it’s anger or isolation

or boys .. A young boy’s life , modeled by Dad , and friends

who test, challenge , shame and worse .. Too many boys loose

their Mom to abuse and neglect , or fail to connect to nurture

as too feminine , holding trauma , anger , fear and grief…

Transforming this ♥️🌹©️

May is Mental Health Awareness month. Yet, there’s a stigma that prevents men from talking about what’s in their heads. Men are dying because of this silence. Here’s how we can address the issue.

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Causes, Symptoms & Diagnosis

I suspect that this is misdiagnosed , and symptoms attributed

to other , diagnosed falsely , RXed , and problematic for life.

I have heard stores of rage from 2 year olds , that indicates

an addiction in Mom, or Dad , or both , denied in accessing

an issue like rage that results …mood swings .. it’s dicey

knowing what’s a stage, a reaction to something deeper .

None of our 3 were subject to act or react so , but I have

no idea what may have transpired with time with Dad

which I kept to a minimum, his parents , accepting the power

of adults , and the pointed inflections that I wasn’t good

enough as a wife, homemaker, a drain unworthy Mom .

Piercing eyes with each movement , especially if eating ,

comments with dismissive demands , watching and listen

as SIL , were talked to as if the dearest of hearts . Always

supportive and gooey with her partner-son ..Still ..

Surrogates are allowed , attachment in truth & love

are not .. Temporary & Mercenary .

addiction , secret groups , sex addiction ..

Truths were often , exposed by it being

the experience of a friend or employee.

Discrimination was over rode by need

addiction …

The Healing Power of Gardens: Oliver Sacks on the Psychological and Physiological Consolations of Nature – Brain Pickings

Women in rural areas live longer , so I’m in total

alignment , have had several successful gardens

in the last 9 years , several successful gardens

with my marriage ..

It’s very much of this Pisces truth, my hands like

planting seeds , creating and harvesting . It has

been a challenge , but as of 2016 , it’s been container

gardening , which a friend who organic gardens

told me we’re better than his 🤩. Soon I will

be graced with my own home , finally abled

to plant and watch growth without implied

or actual threat to moving again .
