Yeah it is.. I agree with the isolation thing and also that men are often taught to sort of keep it all in and not express themselves, if they express their pain they'll likely get called a pussy or a woman or gay by other men. I grew up around guys like that and.. I can see how that would effect many. Luckily I didn't let that stop me from expressing myself though I'm sure it played a role in how I express myself to some degree.
And yeah I think there's a lot of factors though you have to wonder why it's men so much more than women.. I have a feeling it has a lot to do with how we're conditioned in society to be "warriors" and certain gender role stuff like that, also another thing is how often we do the really messed up jobs like going to war to kill others or the very difficult physical factory jobs and fire fighting jobs and things that really take a toll on our bodies and hearts as well.
Thanks for your condolences and empathy. I really appreciate it man and how you've been there in the past when I have expressed my sad thoughts. You seem like a good guy.
Which brings me to something I want to ask. I just had this steem torch thing sent to me earlier and I'm suppose to pass it on to someone else I trust.. And.. Even though I haven't known you as long as others I feel like you're one of the individuals I trust the most on here. Would it be okay with you if I sent it to you next? Assuming you didn't already have someone send it to you previously? If so you need to have access to your wallet and the ability to transfer to someone else or else the 600+ steem will get lost and stuck on your account.
I'll include some links below with more info and then you'll be expected to send it to someone else that you trust next if you do decide to accept.

I appreciate you considering me for the steem torch. Oh boy that so much pressure it makes me nervous lol. I wouldn't want to mess it up or pass it to someone who kept it for themselves hahaha. Um...how quickly would I need to find someone to pass it on to? I couldn't do it this weekend.

Here's the rules.

It doesn't say you have any particular amount of time, though it does say to try to send it to the next person "as soon as possible".
If you're unsure you'll be able to think of someone you trust enough I can think of someone else. And if you won't be able to do it by this weekend I should probably put it in my savings just in case I get hacked then it'll be okay either way. Heh. Yeah it is a bit of pressure. I don't want to mess up either.
Yeah ok im open to it. if you want to send it to me that's fine. I thought of a few people I think would accept it from me.
