There was a time when being a man meant working through the pain, suffering in silence to avoid an unfavorable reputation, and subjecting our bodies to unhealthy habits to declare our badge of virility. Luckily the attitude towards men's health is beginning to shift. While men may still take pride in providing for and protecting their loved ones, admitting the need for help, whether physical or emotional, can still be difficult.  When a man does ask for physical or emotional help, it results in a healthier environment for him, his partner, and his family.
