Why Are Young Men So Afraid To Share About Taking SSRI Medications?

When it comes to transparency about taking SSRIs - among the most commonly prescribed medications in the world, used to treat anxiety, depression, and other conditions - women are apparently far more open than men. And yet statistics show that men frequently suffer from mental health conditions and make use of these medications. According to statistics from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), 8.4% of men took an antidepressant during the period of a study - with the percentage rising to 12.8% among the over-60s. Clearly, men are taking these medications. And yet for many men considering taking one, the wall of silence from one's peers - and other men in general - can feel deafening. Having benefited from somebody's brave decision to disclose their medication journey, I decided to share my experience with these drugs in turn.
