HELP FOR MEN
Each week, I research different
men’s topics, needs, concerns and skills,
and add them to the Help for Men Guidebook.
I then host a Zoom meeting on Friday nights,
giving men a chance to share what is going on in their lives,
their feelings, needs, concerns and goals, and then I present
a relevant topic to help men live healthier, happier lives.
You are welcome to join us.
There was a Q STORM
in the minds and hearts of so many white men.
“You Will Not Replace Us”
is the slogan for white supremacist and white nationalist
fear of being replaced economically and as mates.
R = RECOVERY AFTER THE STORM
S = SAY WHAT YOU NEED TO SAY
Each Friday, 7:30 PM EST on Zoom
H E L P F O R M E N
Meetings on Friday nights on Zoom, 7:30 PM EST.
Please share this invitation with friends.
All are invited.
HELP FOR MEN WHO ARE HURT, ANGRY, SAD OR LONELY
HARMING OTHERS
- We are all shocked each time another young or older man kills people in a school, office or the community.
- In reality, mass shootings drive headlines and political responses, but they comprise only 2 percent of gun deaths
- Every year in our country, a firearm is used in nearly 500,000 crimes, resulting in the deaths and injuries of more than 110,000 people.
- I estimate men commit at least 95% of these crimes.
- Each year, almost 45,000 Americans die by suicide.
- Men die by suicide 3.5 times more than women.
- 35,000 men a year take their lives because they are hurt, angry, sad or lonely, or with no community resources to help them find solutions to their problems.
- About 20 veterans a day (7,300 per year) across the country take their own lives, with about 97 percent of suicides of veterans being men in states that reported gender.
THE PROBLEM
Contributing factors to men committing harm to others or themselves:
- Not in a healthy, loving relationship with a significant other to be comforted and encouraged.
- Not having healthy, compassionate friends to be able to communicate setbacks, disappointments and serious losses.
- Unable to voice their feelings and needs.
- Isolated and feeling lonely or disconnected from others and society.
- Feeling betrayed, resentful or humiliated and wanting to seek revenge.
- Having easy access and experience with guns.
- Not feeling compassion and valuing other’s feelings and needs.
- Not wishing to continue to live to seek to solve problems, and to live peacefully and happily with others.
- Confused, negative, delusional thinking.
