I figured out why REAL men don't cry

Why real men don't cry - it took me years to write this poem and to convey exactly what I was feeling to put it into words and I am happy I finally did it. I understand this poem may not sit well with a lot of people, but the hard truth is that everybody feels. I post this content to remind people that there is a safe place in this scary world. No matter the gender.

I encourage you to leave your comments down below but be mindful of what others go through. Many people deal with mental illness, this is not saying that only men suffer. I am just opening the conversation about something that has been in the dark for some time.

    Even if this doesn't relate to you .. i hope you thought of one of your male friends (friends in general) and maybe sent them a little text :) sometimes we all just need to be treated like a Tuesday to save our day

    this is so amazing. iā€™m so sorry that men go through this. donā€™t ever be afraid to speak up. and be kind to people because you never really know whatā€™s going on in their life.

    I cried before it even got to 30 seconds. This gives me such a different perspective

    I'm a girl and I feel like I can't cry. I'm the type of person who is bad at showing emotions so I just hold them in because I thinks its werid showing all my problems. When I do get to a breaking point and cry and try to talk about it, it doesn't work and I just get shut down but people telling me I have no reason to cry

    When I was told as a child that men don't cry, I took it to my heart and carried it throughout my whole life. I can't cry even if I want to and I want it daily

    I'm so thankful for every video you make. You're such a wonderful human.
  • @Thebramefam
    Thank you for being vulnerable, this world needs more of that to heal. Love your videos!
  • @wollie7967
    I can relate to this video so much...

    i remember hearing so often, why are you crying you're not a baby, why are you crying you're a big kid, why are you crying you're supposed to be an adult. so as a student in the medical field i'm like, when do you hit the point where your tear ducts shut down and you no longer cry? i remember when you'd be crying for whatever reason and your dad would be all like i'll give you something to cry about. and then your day probably got 7 times worse. and these are things that i would like for us to learn to leave behind us so that way we can understand that it is okay for a human being to show emotion and like, exist, and be a human being, because that's what happens and it's normal. in the future if i become a father, i will not say these words to my kids.

    Thank You for this video. It says a lot about us guys. Especially how society shows the world that guys are tough and strong, but yet we are unheard, alone, and it's hard sometimes to talk about how we feel. Just be patient with us and we will open up how we are doing. From one guy to another. Open up to your family and close friends. Truly let them know how you are doing because your life matters and You Matter! Thanks, Joey for the reminder!

    I cried the other day for the first time in 2 years and it felt rlly weird. Weird, but good.
  • @taylah8820
    I think itā€™s so sad how boys think theyā€™re weak if they cry no youā€™re strong and youā€™re allowed to be upset šŸ’•šŸ’•
