Consider the three mental health issues that you listed as being “women’s issues”. If you or a male member of your family had one of these conditions, how might that affect their health-seeking behaviors? Alternately, if you or a female member of your family had a mental health issue perceived as a “men’s issue” how might that affect their health-seeking behaviors?
Break the stereotypes- why are these issues not simply “women’s” or “men’s” mental health issues?Personal examples or experiences are encouraged.
