Depression in Men

Depression in Men - Pt. 2

Men experience depression differently from women. Some men manifest depression as anger, agitation, or being "on edge." While others demonstrate depression by withdrawing from friends, family, and activities they've once enjoyed. However depression manifests in you, there is help available. If you do not have a circle of friends to talk to, you can find help by calling the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988.  Federally Qualified Healthcare Centers (FQHC) have resources available to for anyone who is in need of a primary care provider and/or behavioral health provider. You can find one in your state or county by searching FQHC in your area.
