It has been my experience that it's safer for women to open up about mental health challenges than it is for men. Online at least, it seems that men are treated pretty poorly when they begin to open up about issues like these. Mental health issues affect everyone, but I wish we could try to be equally receptive to people regardless of their identity, especially since it is young men who tend to lash out in very violent ways when mental health issues go unchecked.
