Self-stimulation or sex with a sex doll can help men relax as orgasm releases endorphins in the brain Feel-good hormones. As well as this, it has other health benefits. So, many men do it, and there's nothing wrong with doing so.

However, when it becomes an obsession, it can lead to unwanted problems. But what can cause someone to masturbate excessively? Maybe it's extreme loneliness.<o:p></o:p>

Studies have shown that men are more likely to feel lonely than women. Data collected through research shows that over 6 million men experience depressive symptoms each year. In addition, more than three million people suffer from anxiety disorders. However, these statistics only apply to men in the United States. As several surveys from around the world make the same claim, we can expect these figures to be ten times higher. With an ongoing pandemic, the number of cases could be even higher than expected.<o:p></o:p>

However, while men are more likely to be depressed, they are less likely to seek help. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) reports that men rarely receive mental health support.<o:p></o:p>

Men keep their problems to themselves. They try to alleviate their loneliness in their own way - by masturbating, drinking or abusing drugs. But the world is unforgiving, especially to those who feel isolated. There is only so much they can take away. As they refuse to open up, they look for another way out.<o:p></o:p>

In 2018, the World Health Organisation (WHO) reported that three times as many men as women die by suicide. The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention attests to this. It says that in the same year as the WHO report, "men were 3.56 times more likely to die by suicide than women. <o:p></o:p>

So why is this? Why are men particularly reluctant to share their mental health problems? Many studies have found answers and even offered solutions.<o:p></o:p>

Stigmatisation<o:p></o:p>

Stigma rarely, if ever, produces positive results. When it comes to men's mental health, it is known as the biggest obstacle.<o:p></o:p>

The University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, Canada, published a study on this in the Canadian Journal of Family Physicians. The report says that prescriptive, age-old ideas about gender are part of the reason why men experience mental health problems. Most importantly, they are the main reason why men are uncomfortable seeking professional help.<o:p></o:p>

These beliefs are at the root of the oft-heard phrase "Man up! This does more harm than good. People expect everyone to be strong, capable and reliable. They are therefore discouraged from showing weakness. <o:p></o:p>

As it happens, showing emotional vulnerability is seen as showing weakness. If a man does this, he risks being labelled as a teenage girl, a homosexual or a crybaby. For straight men, these words are degrading. There is nothing wrong with being gay. But straight men don't want to be called something they are not. It can also ruin their chances of finding a partner, so all the more reason to avoid it. Otherwise, they could grow old with a sex doll as a partner.<o:p></o:p>

Sadly, even men hold these stigmatising beliefs about men's mental health issues. Another study conducted in Canada confirmed this. In the survey, male respondents who had never experienced depression or had suicidal thoughts admitted that they considered depressed men to be dangerous. Furthermore, they believed that depressed men "could get out of trouble if they wanted to".<o:p></o:p>

Then, in line with the above study, male respondents with depression admitted to feeling embarrassed about seeking formal treatment. Medical News Today also reported that men do not talk openly about mental health issues, even among their peers.<o:p></o:p>

For people of colour<o:p></o:p>

Life is always more difficult for people of different racial and ethnic backgrounds. So it's not surprising to hear about the additional challenges they face regarding mental health.<o:p></o:p>

Professor Norman Bruce Anderson, former chief executive of the American Psychological Association, reports on this. He says that Latinos and blacks are at a higher risk of being murdered than whites in the US. Similarly, he points out that black males are more likely to be incarcerated. Professor Anderson also points out that American Indians are the most likely to attempt suicide.<o:p></o:p>

Dr Octavio Martinez Jr. of the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health considers this a "double whammy". He says that racism coupled with the stigmatisation of help-seeking behaviour brings men closer to suicide. It can also manifest itself in substance abuse, violence and aggression. These things can lead to more stigma.<o:p></o:p>

Ending the silent epidemic<o:p></o:p>

Men are doing more damage to their mental health problems by keeping them inside. As a result, their problems only get worse. This 'silent epidemic' is a public health issue that needs attention.<o:p></o:p>

Research suggests that the first step to success in this fight is to increase education about mental health. Researchers believe that it is important to break down traditional male perceptions of depression and suicide. This can be achieved by breaking down the stigma surrounding these topics.<o:p></o:p>

Increased education about mental help can also help to inspire people. Some people who experience anxiety and depression do not know what is happening to them. And they are embarrassed because they don't know, so they just keep quiet. "If I had been more educated about mental health, my symptoms wouldn't have been as frightening," says one MNT contributor. "I would be more open to talking about it," the contributor added.<o:p></o:p>

Another key to addressing this issue is to make people aware that seeking emotional support is not the same as showing weakness. Instead, people should see it as a way to maintain their health. To paint a picture, men turn to fitness trainers to help them stay in shape. A therapist should be seen as the equivalent of a mental health trainer.<o:p></o:p>

Physical, mental, emotional, social and sexual health - all of these are important. Take steps to ensure that your health in all areas is never a weakness. It is a strength. Having said that, men who experience profound feelings of isolation are encouraged to talk about it. Seek professional treatment if necessary. Sex dolls are also helping many lonely people these days. There are now male love dolls and female love dolls, and they are doing a great job of helping people who need to address their sexual needs, as well as helping some older people who need companionship.<o:p></o:p>
