To spotlight Men’s Health this month, our feature article, “Solving Mental Health Issues in Men” (page 22) shares some alarming statistics and trends in men’s mental health over the last few decades. Thankfully, in recent years it has become much more common to discuss mental health openly and honestly. There is always more we can do, so read on to learn more—and share this month’s magazine with the men in your life.
