Male - Worst Health Habits









Not doing self-checks



Just like with visiting the doctor, many men avoid doing necessary health self-checks due to fear, denial of the risks, or confusion over what to do.
 If you are not sure how to go about checking yourself, visit a reputable website or ask your doctor for tips on performing necessary checks.

Bottling things up



On the whole, men are less likely than women to talk about their feelings, express emotion or ask for help and support.
Perhaps as a consequence of this, men are half as likely as women to be diagnosed with depression, yet are 77 per cent more likely to commit suicide.
 Depressed men are also twice as likely as depressed women to resort to alcohol and drug abuse.
 Bottling up anger is just as detrimental to men's health, with research suggesting that men who don't express their anger increase their risk of a heart attack.

Stressing over work



While men and women are equally exposed to workplace stress, according to a survey of 3,000 workers by Medicash, men are four times more likely than women to take a sick day due to work related stress and are twice as likely to turn to alcohol to help deal with it.
As workplace stress can be an important factor in the development of depression, heart disease and stroke, it is vital to seek a way to resolve your feelings and ease your stress; whether it is by talking to your boss, changing your job or seeking professional help.
