    Self Care is NOT Selfish
    May 20 2025
    🎙 The Mental Health Boys Podcast | Self Care is NOT Selfish

    🧠 Self-care isn’t selfish—it’s survival. But in a world that calls rest “lazy” and pressure “normal,” many men still struggle to prioritize their own peace. In this raw and real episode, Chris & Steve dive deep into the myths around self-care, cultural guilt, and why too many men hit burnout before they ever hit pause.


    🔍 Topics in This Episode:

    ✔️ Why men feel guilty for taking time to recharge

    ✔️ The difference between self-care & selfishness

    ✔️ How societal norms gaslight men into neglecting themselves

    ✔️ Real signs it’s time to take a break

    ✔️ How to train yourself to actually respond to stress


    💡 Did you know? Men are far less likely to seek mental health support—and over 60% say they don’t feel like they “deserve” self-care until they’re in crisis.


    🚀 What You’ll Learn:

    ✔️ How to reframe your mindset around rest & recovery

    ✔️ The power of self-compassion in high-pressure environments

    ✔️ Real-life ways to recharge—without guilt
