In this comic, a man is open with his feelings and reveals that he’s been hiding a crippling depression that has become a facet of daily life. Something a large portion of men quietly struggle with as society frowns on men showing or expressing negative emotions.

In this comment thread, people shit on the comic for the guy not being more sympathetic to the woman.

in this comic a man is selfishly minimizing his partner’s pain, turning the relationship into an unhealthy pain contest.

there are ways to express male emotion without being an asshole about it.
