Men’s Health Facts

  • 1 in 4 adults in the United States will experience a mental health problem in a given year
  • In America, 4 out of 5 suicides are men
  • Every day 90 American men die by suicide
  • Every minute, somewhere in the world, a man takes his own life

Compound that with these facts from The Cleveland Clinic:

  • Only 3 out of 5 men get annual physicals
  • Over 40% of men only go to the doctor when they think they have a serious medical condition
  • More than half of men said their health wasn’t something they talk about.

This November, take charge of your health. See a doctor, talk to others and remember, “We Must Become the Change We Want to See”
-Mahatma Gandhi
