@ChiromoHospGrp @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa Men turn to other men, who are equally not empowered but actually perpetuate the bias. Help starts by changing the longstanding narrative in men.

Q5. When men need help-whether emotionally, financially, or socially- where do they actually turn? And what systems are failing them? @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa @Senciousleyon @MissMihari @kajuju_nthiana @Nasasira_Claire @Zewedi96 @Korle @ChristineOmbima @J_YouthAdvocate @BugembePamela @ruraltoglobal @NAYAKenya @BosekTitus @kahamamike @Chif_abugah @kyarimpa_rose @Wangui_Wambugu @Baby_Naaaaa @GeorgeWNjoroge

@ChiromoHospGrp @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa Emotional expression should not be labelled but celebrated.

Q4. Why do so many men still struggle to admit they're not okay- and what needs to change to make vulnerability feel safe, not shameful? @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa @Senciousleyon @MissMihari @kajuju_nthiana @Nasasira_Claire @Zewedi96 @Korle @ChristineOmbima @J_YouthAdvocate @BugembePamela @ruraltoglobal @NAYAKenya @BosekTitus @kahamamike @Chif_abugah @kyarimpa_rose @Wangui_Wambugu @Baby_Naaaaa @GeorgeWNjoroge

@ChiromoHospGrp @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa Men are not cuturalized to express themselves or show emotional vulnerability cause it will be deemed as a weakness.

@ChiromoHospGrp @MarthaMatolo @khannafisa07 @Muthoni_mk @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @njambi_gacheru @Rev_soglo @GeorgeJMsuya The pressure to provide predisposes men to stress due to economic hardships they face, which in turn increases the chances of anxiety and depression. They have to meet certain societal expectations without fail.

Q2. How is the pressure to be the 'provider' affecting men's mental health and sense of worth-especially in an era of economic uncertainty and dual-income households? @MarthaMatolo @khannafisa07 @Muthoni_mk @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @njambi_gacheru @Rev_soglo @GeorgeJMsuya @_BayoAbiodun @JuliusKizito10 @guyodibaboru @Odotte_Hillary @KelvinOpiepie @SOmbimavoh @MAbubanks @CathyWanjiru8 @wesleyochieng6 @ShamiriAfrika @MuthoniStevens @JamboNate @mental360kenya @Frankenyatta254 @FlominahM @BDiana1st @chikomborero_f @Mybody_Ke @GeorgeWNjoroge

Q3. Are modern men truly free to be emotionally open in relationships, or are they still rewarded for emotional restraint? @MarthaMatolo @khannafisa07 @Muthoni_mk @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @njambi_gacheru @Rev_soglo @GeorgeJMsuya @_BayoAbiodun @JuliusKizito10 @guyodibaboru @Odotte_Hillary @KelvinOpiepie @SOmbimavoh @MAbubanks @CathyWanjiru8 @wesleyochieng6 @ShamiriAfrika @MuthoniStevens @JamboNate @mental360kenya @Frankenyatta254 @FlominahM @BDiana1st @chikomborero_f @Mybody_Ke @GeorgeWNjoroge

@ChiromoHospGrp @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 A modern man is defined as an individual who can combine traditional traits as well as modern traits, making him more adaptable but still able to play traditional roles.

Q1. In a world where traditional masculinity is constantly being redefined, what does it mean to be a man today? And who gets to decide that definition? @BlessedOsakue @Lukayi_Chosen @TwebazePeter3 @AKUGIZIBWEJUL14 @katwere_enoch @benjaminruks @lyagoba_ivan @Olekirongo @Netto254 @TLhissa @Senciousleyon @MissMihari @kajuju_nthiana @Nasasira_Claire @Zewedi96 @_Korle @ChristineOmbima @J_YouthAdvocate @BugembePamela @ruraltoglobal @NAYAKenya @BosekTitus @kahamamike @Chif_abugah @kyarimpa_rose @Wangui__Wambugu @Baby_Naaaaa #MensmentalHealth #TheModernMan #MyMentalHealthFirst #YourMentalHealthFirst #Tufunguke

@ChiromoHospGrp @khannafisa07 @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk Anger is one of the forbidden emotions that affect our wellbeing. When anger is suppressed, stress build up as well as resentment which leads to development of bitterness. This is harmful to one's wellbeing.

How does suppressing them impact your well-being? @khannafisa07 @millynjuguna @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk #emotions #yourmentalhealthfirst #mymentalhealthfirst #Tufunguke

@ChiromoHospGrp @khannafisa07 @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk One of the forbidden emotions is Anger. Suppressing anger means turning the emotion inward instead of outward. This affects physical and mental health in a variety of ways.

@ChiromoHospGrp @khannafisa07 @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk A racing heart, a flood of thoughts, dry mouth, cold sweats, light headedness, shortness of breath, incresed blood pressure. Eith these cues one is most likely to understand that they are feeling agitated, as well as triggers to the emotions.

Q2. What physical sensations do people often notice when experiencing Strong emotions? How can these cues help us understand ourselves better? @khannafisa07 @millynjuguna @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk #emotions #yourmentalhealthfirst #mymentalhealthfirst #Tufunguke

@ChiromoHospGrp @khannafisa07 @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk Yes, it is possible to identify an emotion before a reaction. However, it requires one to have a high sense of self-awareness. One has the capacity to exercise control over a reaction. it is a matter of choice.

Q1. Is it possible to identify an emotion before a reaction? And does one have control over their reaction? @khannafisa07 @millynjuguna @njambi_gacheru @w_mwangi19 @CarolsammyG @KagayaTracy @Muthoni_mk #emotions #yourmentalhealthfirst #mymentalhealthfirst #Tufunguke
