I think its a maturity thing for guys. My gym buddies and I were talking about mental health a while back and I said "I was on meds for a while because I had an irrational sense that life wasnt worth living. A year later on the meds I was fat, unmotivated and had erectile dysfunction and I was like 'Great, now I have legitimate reasons to think about killing myself' so I came off the pills."

The 20 somethings all looked super fucking uncomfortable, the thirty somethings nodded and made sympathetic faces and the other 40+ guy said "How are you doing with it these days?" Of course I immediately deflected and said "Oh its hard as a rock" which got the laugh and broke the tension. But the only guy who didnt duck the conversation was the guy of a similar age who had a rough divorce years before I knew him...
