Most research indicates that there are twice as many depressed females as males. I don't believe that is true.
Men deny they have problems because they are supposed to "be strong." I believe men often express our depression through irritability, anger, alcohol, and acting out.
I'm writing a book on male depression, to be published in 2005.

Mission:
MenAlive seeks to enrich men's relationships with themselves, their families, and their communities.
Vision:
MenAlive focuses on male menopause as a critical bridge to the second half of life. We focus on the Irritable Male Syndrome and men and depression, to prepare men to cross that bridge. We address the hormonal, physical, psychological, interpersonal, sexual, nutritional, economic, social, ecological, and spiritual aspects of men's health and act as an influential source of timely information, resources, products and community centered events on male menopause and men's health, for men and the women who love them.
