Chris Pirilloi didn't realize the amount of men who unalive themselves during or after a divorce was so high
Apicultor 🐝@ChrisPirillo Depression is one fucking hell of a drug, Chris.
Dave KT@ChrisPirillo Men are very emotional and often not equipped to ask for help or identify what they are feeling. We need to give them more support but society can make that hard.
Jakob (he/him)@dave @ChrisPirillo But also: more support in getting out of the pattern of their spouses and female best friends having to sort out their feelings in hours of emotional work. Not really more support as in continuing to do that work for them :)
Ofc helping people in acute need of help should be done.

MIfoodie@ChrisPirillo I remember seeing a post here- I guess I could try find it but it could be hard to find- about this and if this happened to women as much as it did with men there would be so much more resources for help.
I’m not necessarily sure if I agree with this or not but it is an interesting thought on societal and gender expectations.
Scott Miller 🇺🇦 🇺🇸@MIfoodie @ChrisPirillo I think it might be true if for no other reason than women are more likely to admit they need help. I’m guessing (on average) women have better support networks and actually use them, and are more likely to seek professional help if needed.
Unfortunately I know a man who did just this thing. I and another guy who worked with him had no idea he was handling it so badly until we got tragic news.
@scottmiller42 @ChrisPirillo Yes I know of nephew of someone I know who did this and niece of someone I know.
No one I have ever met though
