Many studies reveal that men typically avoid going to the doctor. One study put the number as high as 60-percent. When it comes to mental health, the situation is worse. Men are less likely than women to seek mental health help for depression, substance addiction or stressful life events, including anxiety and trauma. To address this issue, UW All of Us Milwaukee and Unity Gospel House of Prayer joined forces on what has now become a Men’s Health Night series. Bashir Easter, Ph.D., Assistant Director of UW All of Us Milwaukee and Pastor Marlon Lock of Unity Gospel House of Prayer are here to tell us about it.
