๐Ÿ’™ Wellness Wednesday: Menโ€™s Health Matters ๐Ÿ’™

When we talk about health, we canโ€™t separate the body from the mind โ€” especially for men.

Men are often taught to โ€œtough it outโ€ and stay silent, but the truth is:

๐Ÿ”น Men are 50% less likely to seek preventive health care than women
๐Ÿ”น 79% of su***de deaths in the U.S. are men
๐Ÿ”น Men are 2x more likely to binge drink and struggle with substance use
๐Ÿ”น Depression in men often shows up as anger, irritability, or withdrawal, not sadness
๐Ÿ”น Strong social support can reduce depression risk by 50%

These numbers arenโ€™t just statistics โ€” theyโ€™re our brothers, fathers, partners, friends, and co-workers.

๐Ÿ’ฌ So letโ€™s ask the real questions:
โ€œHow are you really doing?โ€
โ€œWhat can I do to support you?โ€
โ€œItโ€™s okay to talk โ€” and itโ€™s okay to not be okay.โ€

Seeking help isnโ€™t a weaknessโ€”itโ€™s self-leadership and strength in action.
โœ… Schedule a check-up
โœ… Talk to someone you trust
โœ… Move your body, even 10 minutes helps
โœ… Check in on the men in your life
โœ… Save this number ๐Ÿ‘‰ 988 (Su***de & Crisis Lifeline โ€” U.S.)

A single conversation can change โ€” or even save โ€” a life. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿ’™ November is Menโ€™s Health Month ๐Ÿ’™

This month, FCC Behavioral Health joins communities across the nation in recognizing the importance of menโ€™s mental health. While itโ€™s common to focus on physical wellness, mental and emotional well-being are just as vital.

Men often face pressure to โ€œtough it outโ€ or keep their struggles to themselves โ€” but seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Everyone deserves support, and itโ€™s okay to reach out when things feel heavy.

๐Ÿ“ž If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to connect with the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline.

Support is free, confidential, and available 24/7 โ€” because no one should face a mental health challenge alone.

Together, we can break the stigma and encourage open, honest conversations about mental health.

Letโ€™s check in on our friends, coworkers, brothers, and fathers โ€” sometimes, a simple conversation can make all the difference.

๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป Spooky Season Self-Care Reminder! ๐Ÿ‘ป๐ŸŽƒ

As the Halloween festivities begin โ€” costumes, candy, parties, and all the excitement โ€” itโ€™s easy to forget that this time of year can also bring added stress, anxiety, or loneliness for many.

Here are a few wellness tips to keep your mental health in check while enjoying the fun:

๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ Take a breather: Busy schedules and social events can be overwhelming. Itโ€™s okay to say no and take time to recharge.
๐Ÿฌ Moderation matters: A little candy goes a long way โ€” too much sugar can impact mood and energy.
๐ŸŽญ Be mindful with costumes: Choose costumes and themes that make you (and others) feel comfortable and respected.
๐Ÿงก Connect with kindness: Reach out to friends or loved ones who might not have plans โ€” an invite or message can make a big difference.
๐ŸŒ™ Rest & reset: Late nights and full calendars can take a toll. Prioritize sleep and self-care as the season continues.

Halloween is all about fun, creativity, and connection โ€” just remember, your mental wellness is the real magic behind it all. โœจ

The 2025 Community Collaborative Program of the Year honors an organization within the FCC Behavioral Health service area that goes above and beyond in partnership, dedication, and community impact.

This year, we are thrilled to recognize the Dunklin County Caring Council โ€” a remarkable organization whose mission is to connect families with the services and resources they need to thrive. ๐Ÿ’™ Their work strengthens families, schools, and communities by fostering collaboration among social service agencies, faith-based groups, businesses, and educators โ€” all united in the goal of creating lasting, positive change.

Did you know weather-wise, October is generally one of the drier months? Although passing cold fronts can bring gusty winds, brief rain, and a noticeable drop in temperature, these fronts can occasionally trigger severe storms. Missouri enters its lesser-known secondary severe weather season, with a small risk of isolated tornadoes. The first frost of the season usually arrives during October as well, particularly in northern and rural areas, signaling the end of the growing season.

If you or someone you know was affected by the tornadoes earlier this year, please visit moshowmehope.org or call 573-686-1200 for more information.
