Justin Bieber and his wife announced in May 2024 that they were expecting a baby.

Authors: Justin Bieber's post is notable for making his internal struggle visible.

Emotional pain is linked to serious health issues, but the public’s response to male expressions of emotion and vulnerability is often minimized, if not dismissive.

Writers: Men need to overcome enduring stereotypes and overcome enduring fears and sadness to themselves.

There is a complex interplay between society’s assumptions and beliefs about men and fatherhood.

Men, consequently, are less likely than women to seek mental health services.

Men need outlets for their pain. They would benefit from relationships with partners, family and friends that support and nurture them in times of joy.
