What might be some signs of depression in men? And what can you do about it? This 2:50-minute video offers clues on what your gut might already be telling you about a friend, loved one, or relative. Or maybe even yourself.
This is a video about the many faces of depression for a largely male-dominated industry of construction. You may think you need to look for the “sad person” but in reality, the mask people wear can hide that sadness and you may only catch glimpses of it when the mask slips.
The disappearing friend is another sign. That person who was always around is now background noise probably because he is isolating–embarrassed to be feeling so down.
Then there is the anger and irritability that can be signs of depression. That individual may not have a sad episode in his life but he does in fact have times where he is unbearable to be around because he iss always so mad. That’s a sign of depression.
Are you a dude who suspects you might be depressed? You can take this online evaluation created by a qualified team of mental health professionals and you can find out anonymously and privately if you might indeed have signs of depression.
