If you’ve ever been told to “toughen up,” then that person was probably taught the same thing.

But here’s the kicker:

“This ‘tough guy’ act can leave you feeling utterly alone… alone with the terror that maybe your mental health will get worse.” (p. 16)

The “toughen up” mindset has trained an entire generation to bottle things up — to suffer in silence.

The result?
Young men who are terrified of their own feelings.
Who think asking for help makes them weak.
Who’d rather break down in private than speak up in public.

And it’s not their fault.

But now you have the opportunity to do something different.

📍This week’s move:
Pick a moment this week to say to someone, “Hey — it’s okay to feel a bit off. Doesn’t mean anything’s wrong with you.”
It doesn’t need a deep conversation, just a signal to someone that it’s safe to drop the mask for a moment.

You don’t have to have all the answers. Just be a safe place to land.

Meet Tom 👋 – Youth Mental Health Counsellor at Bloke Therapy

Hi, I’m Tom Klein, I work with young men (16–24) who are navigating stress, anxiety, anger, and identity struggles. Too many young blokes feel stuck in their own head — shut down, overloaded, or unsure who they are.

My role is simple: bring real tools, real talk, and real care. No fluff. Just support that works.

I use practical strategies like the ACT Matrix to help young men build confidence, handle stress, and take action towards the life they value.

Parents, if your son is struggling, you don’t have to do this alone. This is what I’m here for.
