Have you guys ever noticed how women's mental health struggles are constantly disregarded and played off as non issues compared to men's 'wahh poor me I'm lonleh cause no woman wants to come near me boo hoo'. We women are constantly being abused, harassed, raped and murdered by men on a daily basis and all the men have to say is 'but what about the men?' They whine and complain no one takes their mental health seriously when the reality is they refuse to look in the mirror and do the hard inner work to change, whereas women are forced into isolation due to abusers running rampant and unchecked in our society. We live in fear or even meeting new men let alone wanting their attention and for men it's the opposite. They don't have to live in fear of a woman raping them, physically assaulting them or murdering them. Their only fear is not having their egos pandered to and their fee fees catered to by all women that they feel entitled to. We women aren't entitled to anything we are just out here trying to stay alive amongst a society of dangerous predators/sociopath men and meanwhile the worst that happens to a man is he can't get his d*ck wet.
I struggle with daily disassociation where I have amnesia and lose track of time and memory and can barely focus and get my daily work done as a result of a narcissistic sociopath/psychopath who targeted and abused me 5 years ago that induced Complex PTSD and caused me to regress back in development to a more childlike state. These men should be sued into the ground for what they do to women and be forced to pay for our therapy and be put in jail. I'm still in therapy 5 years later and lost my ability to truly trust and love another person because that monster robbed me of my soul and spirit and now I can barely keep my eyes open every day from exhaustion. He truly broke me down into a million pieces then skipped off into the sunset with his newest victim while I got zero support from my family or society and had to suffer alone and wasn't even believed after I filed a police report. They shamed and blamed me for having chosen him when he literally stalked me across continents to break my boundaries to be with him only to cruelly discard me when I was at my worst. I really have lost most if not all my empathy and compassion for them since they refuse to empathize with women's plights and instead side with their male abusers. The only reason they join women's rights causes like abortion rights is to try and find vulnerable women to get their pee pees wet by looking like they support women when really they're not our allies they are our sworn enemies. Men cause most of their own mental health issues and women's mental health issues are usually solely caused by men abusing them. If anything the men who've harassed and abused us should be paying for our years of therapy. I wish they could live one day in a woman's shoes (heels to be exact) and experience the true fear for our life we have to walk in every day. They're truly pathetic and weak cowards that don't deserve a woman if they can't step up to the plate and protect a woman's feelings, safety and dignity in this world that is so cruel to women.
Notice how they exclusively bring up male "challenges" when someone is talking about women problems, or as a response to women problems. Never on its own.

Did you know that women have higher self esteem and perform better when educated in girls-only schools, while men perform better in co-ed schools? That tells you a lot.
Often if I see an article on the struggles of teen girls or women and there's a comments section, it IMMEDIATELY devolves into the males commenting about THEIR problems and hijacking the entire conversation. Which they always do both in real life and online, unsurprisingly.
Oh sister, I completely empathize and I’m so sorry that you are also picking up the pieces that you never should have had to in the first place. It’s ridiculous that even when we do everything right; report the bastard, go to therapy, even go through a trial, we are still repeatedly discarded by the system.
i don’t remember any time in my life when my feelings and trauma were truly taken seriously by anyone who is not specifically an empathetic friend or partner whom I chose to befriend in my life. Even those who claim to care often do little more than tell you to go talk to a therapist (as if that solves the issue of violent men) and then they expect you not to bring it up again except to say that you’re doing better.
I have a lot of pent up rage from a recent injustice, so i don’t have the solution when it comes to managing anger and sadness. But what I will say is that I have found healing in some feminist literature and in creative endeavors (oh, the rage in the music I’ve written is powerful). I hope you find some outlets like these so that it doesn’t continue to harm you at the level you are experiencing now. If you ever need to vent, I’m around and I care and I’m angry too
Men are the reason why mental health is stigmatized. If men are logical and woman are emotional, then we must ignore any emotions feelings because woman are illogical. Idc about men, not my problem you feminized therapy and are now unable to do it. Dump them in the trash, just like you would when dating a man who thinks changing his baby's diapers make his feminine
