In addition to Pride, June is also Men’s Mental Health Month. Statistics show that women are diagnosed with depression twice as much as men. However, suicide data from the CDC shows that the rate of suicide was four times higher for men than women in 2020 and over 6 million men suffer from depression, often left undiagnosed. Mike Andrick, Sweetser’s Senior Director of Adult Crisis & Residential Services, was a guest on WMTW’s Mental Health Moment to discuss the importance of mental health among men.
