@present.father: Sometimes a man isn’t angry. He’s exhausted. Exhausted from being needed by everyone. Exhausted from solving problems nobody notices. Exhausted from carrying things he doesn’t talk about. Exhausted from pretending he’s fine because people depend on him being fine. So the texts start feeling like work. The plans feel like obligations. The smallest questions get under his skin. Not because he stopped caring. Because he’s been pouring from an empty cup for so long that even the people he loves can start to feel like one more thing he has to carry. Men, you don’t have to wait until you completely fall apart to admit you’re tired. And if you know a man who’s gone quiet lately, check on him. Sometimes “I’m good” really means “I’ve got nothing left.” #MensMentalHealth #PresentFather #CheckOnYourPeople
