Description
The paradox of modern masculinity: why men struggle with happiness and wellbeing. Despite outward appearances, many men are struggling with anxiety, exhaustion, depression, and feelings of unhappiness. Research suggests that the system set up for men is not working in their favour. From childhood to adulthood, societal expectations can take a toll on mental health. In "Man Down", Matt Rudd explores this issue, drawing on his own experiences and those of other men he has interviewed. He asks a crucial question: is midlife unhappiness inevitable? The answer, according to Rudd, is no. By examining the roots of male unhappiness, Rudd offers a hopeful solution. This thought-provoking book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of modern masculinity and finding ways to improve wellbeing.
