Let’s talk about Men’s Mental Health Month. Why? Because statistically, men are less likely to talk about it themselves. A UK study published last year found that 40% of men surveyed about their mental health haven't spoken to anyone about their feelings because they are too embarrassed or feel there is a negative stigma, among other reasons. Our partner, loneliness and social health solution @PyxHealth, has reported similar hesitation in the members they serve: While men and women face similar rates of loneliness, men are much less likely to reach out for help. Only about 1 in 4 Pyx Health users who decide to onboard are men. That delay in reaching out for help may contribute to a higher acuity of loneliness in men as well, with 15% of male Pyx users ranking at the highest tier of loneliness when they finally engage.Social stigma surrounding masculinity historically discourages emotional expression, making it difficult for men to acknowledge their loneliness or seek help. Limited social connections are increasingly a factor as well.Better understanding of these challenges helps us create safe spaces for open communication and provide resources that cater to the unique needs and experiences of all people.
