What are the most common sources of stress for men?

I think the biggest stress for Men is responsibility.
Society expects men to handle all burdens and he mustn't show emotions else he'll be considered weak

It's another Friday.

Happy weekend guys!

Wow, nice being here again.

The major thing that causes stress to men is financial stress, and stress on how to find a good life partner.

Another thing is , men personally hardly share what disturbs them, because we feel no body will be able to help. A lot of people look up to men and at times the billings becomes much and it drains us much.

But in all God will help us.

It's cool to be sharing the 19th comment today. Good position 😀

For me, the stress I know men passes through that gets to affect them is physical and mental stress which tells a lot on them, reducing their lifespan if their health is not properly managed. The burden of shouldering their responsibilities makes them push more no matter what

Secondly, the challenges men face in sharing their emotional and mental struggles is that they don't wanna be seen WEAK. That says it all.

Lastly! I want to shout and scream this that THE MALE ROLE MODEL FOR OUR SOCIETY IS TINUBU!!!!!!!!
Come and beat me where I am 🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸

@van.illa @goldenproject @marsdave @chefqueen oya come and answer

Happy weekend guys and belated happy international men's day to all the men in our community who stand for love, justice and fairness.

What are the biggest challenges young men face when it comes to discussing their emotional and mental struggles?”

If this question is thrown at me a million times, my answer would remain the same. The biggest challenge young men face when discussing their emotional and mental struggles is the fear of acceptance. Many older Nigerian men were raised to bottle up their emotions and cope by joking about even the most sensitive experiences with their peers. Unfortunately, younger men are following that same path.

We talk about mental health every day, yet when young men gather with their friends, they struggle to open up because they fear being mocked or seen as less masculine for expressing their feelings. They fear that their experiences might be seen as less valid, downplayed or turned into jokes. But I believe that if these young men come together to create genuine communities for themselves that validate their emotions, and at the same time, offer real support, half of their problems would be solved.

@joeboi24 care to share your thoughts?

God bless All Men trying their best!!!

Being a man is such a difficult thing especially in our era and you know why it is so?

It is because even your immediate family members expects heaven from you
It gets so bad that a point, you get scared of where you once called HOME because of the unpredictable things someone might say to you subtly or with seriousness.

The weight men carry is just so much, is it the financial pressure? Is it the Peer pressure? Is it the fear of failure at the place of work?

It's just so enormous to mention.

And to cap it all, "MEN DON'T CRY" which invariably means you can't even find someone to share the burdens of your challenges with because when you do and eventually it was the wrong person, they see it that you're complaining and that you are weak.

And for people that will listen, you know what they eventually tell you? They tell you to "MAN UP" and be a man as if you were a woman.

Men have ego and rather than being seen as weak and complainers, they will rather keep the problem to themselves.

Men rather take the last spot in life rather than allowing their problems look important to worry someone even when it should be something to worry about.

It's well

feliz día

Happy weekend everyone.....so I want to contribute to what are the biggest challenges young men face when discussing their emotional and mental struggles first of all I would like to say happy international men's day and I want to appreciate you all. okay so I would say the biggest challenges young men face with discussing their emotional and mental struggle is seen in phrases like men don't cry, I'm a man. This short phrases have played a role to why some men feel the need to keep their emotions to themselves, so even when they are going through emotional and mental struggles they find it hard to speak out. I just want to say its okay to voice out, cry if you want to it doesn't mean you are approaching things wrongly it only shows you are human. Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Thank God it's Friday, happy weekend to you all.

Omoh…

Just omoh…

Happy international men’s day to every manly men out there…

Happy belated International Men’s Day to all the men here. Wishing you more wins, more joy, and more ease in everything you do.

Happy weekend everyone ✨🤍

Hello everyone! It's my first time here.🤭

About the second question, I think the most common sources of stress for our country men are money, family, and relationships. Making enough to cover bills, support loved ones, and still have something left to save is hard. And because many men naturally take on the role of provider, they often end up carrying most of the financial weight for their family or even an unmarried partner. All of that can lead to serious physical, mental, and emotional stress, especially when the expectationss are way bigger than the income 🙂.

no 1 stress for men is women, everything man dey do for this life na for woman period

” What are the biggest challenges young men face when it comes to discussing their emotional and mental struggles?”

Some men just don’t want to be mocked, a man can share his serious problems with bills, work, responsibilities and people around might just respond with “na so man life be” nothing else.

Men also need love, men also need encouragement, they need to be pampered once in a while 😄 it doesn't make them feel alone and condemned, it puts them at ease to share their struggles.

"What are the most common sources of stress for men?”.

Omoh, to me oh, the biggest common sources of stress for men are the RRM… responsibility, relationship and Money…

These three are the most common sources of stress for men…

I lie @nkemakonam89 @van.illa @chefqueen @justfavour @hopestylist ???

Women 😂

Number 1 source of stress 😂
I agree

What are the most common sources of stress for men

I will say Financial Struggles, because it's like that's the one thing that can make a man be in a spot, I have friends who have alot of responsibilities, and somehow the still trying to keep up with other things. But it is sure that it is this financial struggles that gets to them more.

Even though people will say it is everyone that has this struggle, but for a man ,this is the most.

Happy International Mens Day 😁😁🥳

........omo, if he easy to be man, take my shoes and go 😭, even when my energy down I dey drink 🍷
...😁😁

This is a very deep topic, but then I will do the little I can.

Talking about stress in men, first off there's the pressure to be always available, to always show up, the pressure to provide, coupled with the fact that there's no job out there, whereas everybody is expecting you to do something. Relationship has it's own stress too, as a man, you will want to be supportive, loving, strong, providing and working at the same time. And no one really sees how hard and heavy that is, it's not as simple as it sounds.

Men struggle, we struggle emotionally too. From a young age most of us have been doing one or two things for ourselves, we were always told we are a man and we should act like one. So, when fear, doubt and the likes sets in, we often hide it, some of us become lonely even when we are not alone. It's not so easy to deal with. You share it out and receive some backlash as if men aren't humans too.

But then, there are those who listen, who speak up and guide us. I love the likes of Dr Paul of Dunamis, I admire is courage and the fact that he speaks out everytime, the likes of VDM too, even though some claim to not like him, but most of the things he does are ones to emulate, talk of the like of Mrmacaroni, he doesn't care who you're, he will talk, there's this guy leading the Inecreform stuffs too. This are Father's, mentors and leaders. They are the ones that remind us that we are men and we are human as well.
