Depression Causes & Triggers in Men

Featuring Dr. John Ogrodniczuk, PhD, Psychologist
Duration: 1 minute

There can be many different depression triggers for men.

We really don't have any evidence to suggest that triggers for depression are different among men and women. But, there are particular circumstances or events that do seem to be particularly problematic for men, and thus, may indeed be stronger triggers. These usually revolve around issues of loss and grief.

It's not always about death losses, while indeed that is a very strong event for any of us to deal with. It can be loss in more general terms: loss of employment, loss of childhood dreams, loss of physical prowess, or loss of esteem that we've invested in a particular job that we've now given up for retirement.

The longer a man doesn't seek help for depression, the longer those periods of down time will be, and the shorter and fewer the up ones will be. So, over a course of many months and years, the man will tend to find himself down for most of the time. The longer that persists, the more difficult it is to treat his depression.

Depression doesn't necessarily last for a set amount of time. It's quite variable if a man has experienced depression around a particular acute event, for example, a job loss. The depression may last until the time that the man finds a new, perhaps equally rewarding, employed position. But in the general sense, depression tends to come and go.

If you have questions about depression triggers for men, contact a local mental health provider.
