Mental disorders affect men and women, but men are less likely to have received mental health treatment than women in the past year. Men are also more likely to die by suicide than women, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. What does it mean when men bottle up their emotions? How can we encourage them to seek help? Taylor Johnston, LPC is a licensed professional counselor associate in the Department of Psychiatry’s Counseling Center where he sees patients through our employee assistance program and program of assistance for students. Taylor stresses the importance of a support system, self-care and mindfulness, plus counseling, help lead to better mental health.
