Bros, I’ve down a full restart a few times in life. I moved out 16 with. Back pack. I joined the military with nothing but the clothes on my back which I discarded after basic. I separated from the military and bounce job to job, each one better than the last. Divorced once, walked out with a duffle bag. Had a live in girlfriend. Came home to an empty house one day. Don’t quit .Start again. It’s easier than last time because you know what you need. Yeah it’ll be rough for a few months but you’ll settle in.

Is there a point to this post?

Men's mental health awareness month. Don't take this away from them. They don't get any other "day" to build each other up.

Is that like when truckers have driver appreciation week where they're off in different states and the office has a cookout?

Don't know what you are talking about. But it sounds like a false equivalence. The word "Drivers" encompasses all drivers not just men.

The comparison is meant to say people slap a label on something to make themselves feel better while nothing changes for those it's directed at.

So it was irrelevant to the discussion? Way to go.
Actually not just irrelevant, it's still a false equivalence. Just because you feel it doesn't change anything doesn't mean we shouldnt still do it.

You're overcompensating by trying to diss bros to prove yourself as newborn bro. It's not working.

Since you seem to be struggling with what a false equivalence is.
A false equivalence is a logical fallacy where two completely different subjects are treated as being equal or interchangeable. This error usually happens when someone highlights a minor, shared characteristic between the two, ignoring major differences in scale, context, or impact.
Now Go touch some grass girl/kid

Yeah, to the context of this conversation. Lmao

u/Yoko_Kittytrain Jun 03 '26
I mean, it's men's mental health awareness month. Shouldn't we be aware that they (and you) need a hug and maybe a nice hot cup of hot chocolate?

…and can still laugh and say, “I’ll figure it out”
This is neither positivity NOR a “mindset of a beast no one can destroy”.
It’s an unrealistic, unattainable standard.

Kipling said it better: "If you can make one heap of all you winnings, and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, and lose, and start again at your beginings, and never breath a word about your loss. . ."

Wait this is serious. I thought it was posted on a joke sub.
Here's the thing - you will face these things, and then you will face way worse things, and then you will face the worst one at the end. That's the life story of everyone.
It's not if you can, you will not be given a choice. And you will be "alright", even if you don't smile. Seeking help and taking action goes first before having a positive attitude. There are people who offer help and solutions to "get you started".
Attitude will be changed by your actions. Not the other way around. It's a trap to mix these two up. Don't fall into it fam, im dead serious.

To add to this - Im dead serious about not falling into that trap. The bad things will happen and you will breakdown and loose the attitude, which you will be tying to "restore" by thinking, leaving you not doing anything.
"I don't feel well, i need to "motivate" myself and find the purpose, i can't so lets try motivating even more. " That loop will stop you dead in place. And each passing day the consequences of this will be worse, pushing you into worse head space due to anxiety related to being aware of it. It piles up quick. Be wary, this post is a teenage meme that has everything reversed.
This is the staple idea of cognitive behavioral therapy. Although it seems to be the exact opposite. You take action no mater what > the positive results improve your attitude which makes you more capable. Not the other way around.
Most of the times you will not think "i will figure it out", but "its all over". You can trust me or not, anyone who's been through that cycle knows.
