“People don’t fake depression. They fake being ok.” - Robin Williams
A man you’re close to is fighting a quiet, internal war he is not equipped to win. Depression is real for everyone, including men. We were taught to fight or tough our way through sadness, but it’s the one fight toughness can’t win. If a man tells you he’s ok that doesn’t mean he is, & if he tells you he isn’t then believe him.
He doesn’t want to be seen as a man, but a huMAN who is struggling. Do all you can to help. It took a lot for him to tell you… R.I.P. John Brenkus. 🙏🏾
