Male Suicide Prevention Resources

[TronParticipant 285]

Phantom,
Suicide is not going your own way. It’s running away. Yes, I can empathize with a man who feels that way, I have been there, but a man must keep in mind that, although he feels that way now, he won’t always feel that way. The fact that a man is suicidal because of all of the things that you mentioned, tells me that he has wrapped his identity up in those things. A man needs to have an identity outside of those things. I am not saying that loss should not be painful, it is painful. It can be immobilizing too; however, it does not have to be the end of you. If a man stays focused and builds his “wealth”, he will feel loss but he will not be consumed or destroyed by loss. Now, by building your “wealth” I mean your emotional wealth, spiritual wealth, monetary wealth, and physical wealth. It means to focus on developing and balancing all the areas of your life and to be the man that YOU want to be, not the man that women or society wants you to be. I can elaborate if you like, but for now this is all I have time for.

The most powerful resource for a man is himself. Good Luck
