I heard a psychologist say that the way men deal with stress and sadness is different from women. Men more often need to do something physically like hit a punching bag or scream while women need to talk and cry it out. Funny enough, therapy was originally built on what worked with middle aged women as that is who was most willing to work with Freud.

When I get depressed I get a hobby. It’s how I found sound money.
The gym is a great hobby 🫡
I will die in a landslide of junk from my 500 hobbies.

Anyhow, I need to get off my phone and head out to the garage now.
That’s why I believe therapy is destructive for men. It’s a coping mechanism rooted in female psychology, now being pushed onto men, often making their problems worse.
Would it help if they were with a male therapist?
I don’t think so, unless psychologists are considered part of the therapist category.
