A Vulnerable Look At Men’s & Boys’ Mental Health (& how to support it) [Interview with Dr. Unati Makiwane]

It’s no secret that I’m BIG on supporting women on this show. A lot of the issues I invite listeners to get to the root of are planted in social conditioning and what’s considered right, wrong, good, and bad, based on socially accepted “norms.”

But did you know that men and boys are less likely than women and girls to seek help for, be diagnosed with, or receive proper treatment for, mental health conditions?

In this incredible episode with Dr. Unati Makiwane, she takes us on a vulnerable journey through her experience as a doctor treating primarily men and boys, and supporting them in their mental wellness.

We discuss topics like:

  • Men’s mental health & addiction
  • The truth about how often men seek help for mental illnesses
  • How to identify if a man in your life may need mental health support (even if he is not having “typical” mental health symptoms)
  • Parental alienation and how to support the kids through this
  • Red flags of drug use in teens (and how to approach them with compassion, not punishment)
  • Raising teenagers
  • What to do if one of your loved ones may need support in their mental wellness
  • And so, so, so much more.

Dr. Unati Makiwane is a 🇨🇦🍁 Family Physician for 15 years, Keynote Speaker, and Menโ€™s Health and Boy Children’s Mental Health Coach. She is the Founder & CEO of Dr M Health Corner Talk Show.

She is also the President of Black Mental Health Matters and Co-Host of BMHM Talk Show.
