Men are struggling, it’s time we paid attention-Bishop Msidi
Bishop Bruce Msidi has called on society to take action on men’s mental health, stressing that many are suffering in silence.
Bishop Msidi, who is the presiding bishop of Mount Zion Christian Centre, urged society to break the silence surrounding the issue, highlighting the lack of support systems for boys and men.
“We don’t talk about this enough. Statistics show that men are more likely to take their own lives. And yet, there are barely any programs or safe spaces dedicated to helping boys become healthy, whole men,” he said.
“It starts with one conversation. A quiet moment of listening. A decision to show up, to guide, and to be present. We don’t need perfect solutions we just need to start.”
He warned that continued silence would only worsen the crisis.
“The longer we ignore this, the deeper the damage. Empowering men isn’t optional it’s necessary. Because when men drift, families feel it. Communities feel it,” he said in a post shared on his page.
