Hey y 'all, today we're going to talk about why therapy sucks for men.
Này mọi người, hôm nay chúng ta sẽ nói về lý do tại sao trị liệu tâm lý lại không phù hợp với đàn ông.
2
And that may sound kind of confusing because here I am a man, here I am a psychiatrist doing psychotherapy with men.
Và điều đó nghe có vẻ hơi khó hiểu vì tôi là một người đàn ông, tôi là một bác sĩ tâm lý đang thực hiện liệu pháp tâm lý cho những người đàn ông.
3
So what on earth am I talking about?
4
Why do I think therapy sucks for men?
5
In my experience as a psychiatrist, I do actually believe that there are systemic biases that make it hard for men to engage in therapy.
6
And today we're going to talk a little bit about what those systemic factors are, how we can understand them,
7
and even how to overcome some of those factors and move towards more emotional health.
8
If you're ready to take the next step on your mental health journey, check out Dr. K's guide.
9
It's an immersive resource that distills over 20 years of my experience laid out in a way
10
that is tailored to your needs.
11
So if you're ready to better understand your mind and take control of it, check out the link in the description below.
12
So we have to start by understanding where this idea
13
that talk therapy is the gold standard for treating mental illness comes from.
14
So what we really need to understand is that the majority of patients in the history of psychotherapy have been women.
15
About 60 to 70 % of patients today who engage in psychotherapy are women.
16
The other thing is that about 60 to 70 % of therapists today are actually women.
17
So I think what happened early on in psychiatry or psychotherapy is that the majority of people we were helping were women.
18
And so when me as a doctor, when I look at 10 of my patients and I see,
19
okay, so it looks like talking to people about their feelings on average is the most successful thing that I can do.
20
But even though that's factually correct, I may not be taking into account that seven out of those 10 people are women.
21
And maybe the people who are getting help to the most with talk therapy or talking about their emotions are actually women.
22
And it's not just me that says this.
23
If you actually look at the American Psychological Association's guidance for working with boys and men,
24
they sort of point out a systemic bias in the way that we diagnose men and women.
25
And that's a lot of the diagnoses that women get, like depression and anxiety, which by the way,
26
women are about two to three times as likely to be diagnosed with that stuff.
27
A lot of those diagnoses have to do with feelings and being able to articulate stuff.
28
So for example, major depressive disorder involves feeling sad when you're depressed, right?
29
Makes sense.
30
And that a lot of men are actually diagnosed with what we call externalizing disorders,
31
things like addictions or sociopathy or antisocial personality disorder.
32
So these are disorders that involve behaviors.
33
So I think they're sort of cluing us in on a really important idea, which is that when men feel something,
34
they act on it as opposed to articulate it or talk about it.
35
And if we tunnel down into a little bit about how men deal with their emotions,
36
we'll kind of see that this is true in general as well.
37
Because if you're a man, an emotion is a problem to be solved, not something to be talked about, right?
38
So think about like if you get bullied on the playground
39
and you feel ashamed of yourself and people call you a fat kid and beat you up, that isn't something you talk about.
40
In fact, if you go and cry to mommy or cry to the teacher, you're actually treated worse.
41
You're taught that articulating problems and talking to people is cause for punishment.
42
Instead, what you're supposed to do if you're a man is fix the problem, right?
43
So if kids make fun of me for being fat, I'm supposed to lose weight, get ripped, learn martial arts, and the next time they talk,
44
I'm going to teach them who's boss.
45
And so if you sort of think about it, the solution to an internal feeling,
46
feeling ashamed, is to take an action and change the circumstances that make me feel that way.
47
If I'm feeling ashamed because I don't have a job and I don't have any money, what should I do about that?
48
Should I go cry to mommy about how I don't have a job or don't have money?
49
Should I cry to my girlfriend about how I'm broke all the time?
50
No. If you're a man, you need to man the fuck up.
51
Go out there, get a job, and start making money.
52
If you're feeling bad in here, as a man, what we're taught is you're supposed to go fix the problem out there.
53
And this also manifests in men's reluctance to engage in couples counseling.
54
So oftentimes, if you're in a relationship, and I'm assuming a heteronormative relationship for a second, and your wife or your girlfriend says,
55
hey, I think we need to go see a counselor, oftentimes men will be reluctant to engage in that.
56
And if you actually look at the research for why men are reluctant, what you discover is it's not
57
that they're trying to put their head in the sand or they're avoiding a problem or anything like that.
58
They actually feel outgunned in therapy.
59
They feel like when they go to a couple's counselor, my partner is so much better at understanding and articulating their feelings
60
that they can sort of make their case better than I can.
61
And when the therapist tries talking to me, like, I just say, I don't know a lot, or I'm not sure.
62
Like, I don't know how to, someone's asking me to play basketball, but I don't know how to dribble.
63
And so what men actually feel like in couples counseling is that they don't know how to effectively communicate.
64
So imagine a situation where you're like going into a court of law
65
and there's a judge there and your wife makes her case, right?
66
She says, hey, Alok is neglectful.
67
He doesn't appreciate me.
68
I do so much for him.
69
And I know he works hard, but he's really short with me sometimes and it really hurts and I feel really underappreciated.
70
And then as a man, how do I respond to this?
71
I don't speak the language of emotions and
72
so as a dude
73
you're like you don't know how to communicate in the way
74
that therapists like so men literally feel outgunned to engage in things like couples therapy
75
and that's because we as men communicate our emotions in a different way
76
so my favorite example of how men communicate differently is the negative expression of a positive affection.
77
So when we like someone and we're proud of one of our homies or our bros, we don't say that to them, right?
78
In fact, what we do is we kind of dog them about it.
79
If my friend has been single for a while after a bad breakup and starts dating someone else,
80
and I feel really proud and good about that, I don't say, hey friend, I'm really proud of you.
81
And I'm proud that you've been able to find someone who sees the lovable qualities within you that I see.
82
I'm proud that you found someone who treats you the way that I think you deserve to be treated,
83
who loves you for who you are in the way that I love you for who you are.
84
In the history of humanity, I do not think that sequence of words has ever been spoken by a single man.
85
That's not what we say.
86
What do we say?
87
We say, bruh, GG, noob, you're whipped.
88
I guess we'll never see you again.
89
And we're smiling the whole time.
90
We're not like, why don't you text me anymore?
91
I know you haven't been texting me.
92
I feel hurt.
93
Instead of what we do is we actually dog on this guy, right?
94
We're like, we call him whipped and we call him a wuss.
95
And we call him like, we say all these negative things, right?
96
Like, oh, where's the apron strings?
97
We'll say all this like misogynistic crap.
98
But the whole time we're like expressing appreciation and smiling at him.
99
So men have this negative expression of a positive affection.
100
When we feel good about something, we can't just say that, right?
101
Because that's not what we we're taught.
102
Instead of what we have to do is we have to insult the person that we're proud of.
103
That's not how psychotherapy works, right?
104
So if this is my mode of communication, I go see my therapist and my therapist is proud of me.
105
They don't say, hey, fucker, you got a job.
106
You suck.
107
I guess you're not going to be coming to therapy anymore
108
because you ain't got this time because you got all this work to do.
109
You know, screw you.
110
That's not what your therapist says.
111
In fact, we're trained to say the opposite.
112
So the way that we're trained to speak in therapy is, first of all, don't speak very much, right?
113
Don't solve problems.
114
Just sit there and listen and ask this person lots of questions that they're going to say I don't know to.
115
How do you feel about that?
116
How does that make you feel?
117
I don't know.
118
Well, how does that make you feel?
119
I don't know.
120
And so then if you're a dude and you go to therapy, you feel like an idiot, right?
121
Because they're asking you all these questions.
122
You're supposed to know what you feel, but you don't know.
123
And that's because of the way that we've been taught about our emotions.
124
The last thing to consider is that when it comes to emotional health, men are very physical with it.
125
So even if I ask a dude, hey, like, you know, it sounds like you got dumped.
126
Tell me a little bit about how you feel.
127
The dude may not be able to say, I feel unlovable.
128
I'm full of fear that perhaps I won't be able to find a partner.
129
I'm afraid that I'm fundamentally broken in some way that precludes me
130
and maybe destines me to be alone for the rest of my life.
131
That's not what dudes say.
132
What dudes say is it felt like she ripped my heart out.
133
It felt like she stomped on my balls.
134
And if you say that as a dude, the other dudes will know exactly what you mean, right?
135
Like we all know like, oh man, like, oh, it's not just ripped your heart out.
136
It's also a stomp on the balls.
137
I felt that, man.
138
The last time I got dumped, I found out my partner was cheating on me.
139
Felt like she kicked me in the nuts, dude.
140
I know exactly how you feel.
141
That's how we talk.
142
We're very physical in nature.
143
The other thing is if you talk to men about who support each other, right, and they say, if you get dumped,
144
what's the first thing you should do?
145
Hit the gym, baby.
146
And that's where we may assume that this relates to confidence, that if you start working out,
147
you get buffed, and you look at yourself in the mirror, and you're like, I'm so sexy.
148
But we don't even acknowledge for a moment that there may be a physiological aspect to improve your mood.
149
And one of the biggest mistakes
150
that I think we've made in the field of psychotherapy is that we've separated out the mind from the body.
151
Whereas if you look at modern science, we know that anxiety is not just an emotion.
152
It's not just in your mind, that emotions have physical ramifications, that anxiety can induce diarrhea and change the rate of your peristalsis.
153
Anxiety activates your sympathetic nervous system and reduces blood flow to places like your stomach
154
and increases blood flow to other parts of your body.
155
So we know that emotions are actually very physiological in nature.
156
So why is it as a society
157
that we've kind of gotten on this track of simply talking about them instead of acting physically?
158
And a lot of the men that I've worked with, I've sort of noticed that this physical component is way more important than the talking component,
159
at least compared to the women that I've worked with.
160
Just to give you all a simple example, I find that the men in my office need hugs way more than the women.
161
Now, there are a lot of complications to
162
that there's a gender dynamic right between me and the woman where maybe the woman doesn't feel as comfortable to hug me.
163
Maybe I don't feel as comfortable to hug the woman.
164
So I'm not saying that that's like a statement of fact.
165
But what I've noticed is that like hugging men, the patients in my office who are dudes,
166
leads to like a lot more emotional healing and sometimes tears
167
and all this kind of stuff and like more dick jokes after we're done.
168
Right.
169
So there's something very physical about the way that men deal with their emotions.
170
And so if we assume all of this is true.
171
What does this mean for you as a dude?
172
So I know this sounds kind of weird,
173
but the first thing that I'd recommend is that you actually seek psychotherapy if you're struggling in some way.
174
And that may sound weird because you said, Dr. K, there's a systemic bias.
175
Yeah, but it's still the best evidence -based treatment that we have for dealing with mental illness.
176
Medication is just as good, by the way.
177
And another thing we need to keep in mind is that there are randomized controlled trials on many types of psychotherapy,
178
which show that they are equally effective for men and women.
179
So it's not like psychotherapy works.
180
It's just that if you're engaging in psychotherapy as a man,
181
there may be a couple of things that we can arm you with to really make that psychotherapy really worthwhile.
182
So the first recommendation that I have is that you see at least three psychotherapists,
183
or at least you see at least three before you give up on therapy.
184
If you love the first one, then stick with them.
185
And so a lot of psychotherapy is about fit,
186
and it may just be hard to find someone who's able to communicate with you in a way that is helpful.
187
So a couple of things that I would recommend, some language that you can use if you go to psychotherapy.
188
So the first is just simply let your therapist know, hey, I'm not really aware of what I feel all the time,
189
and I'm not very good at articulating my feelings.
190
Because oftentimes therapists will say, how do you feel?
191
And as dudes, we don't know how to answer that.
192
So just be transparent with them at the beginning.
193
Another thing that I'd recommend is that y 'all check out this idea of normative male alexithymia,
194
which is this idea that men are, by default, it's normative.
195
So it's like most men are colorblind to their internal emotional state.
196
So check out our video on alexithymia if y 'all want to.
197
And then you can even tell your therapist that, hey, I'm concerned that I'm a little bit alexithymic.
198
So you're signaling to them that you may not be able to participate in therapy in a default way.
199
The next thing that you can do is ask your therapist to change their style a little bit
200
if it isn't working for you.
201
So you can tell them, hey, I've noticed that you're really quiet.
202
And then you kind of ask these questions like, how do you feel over and over and over again?
203
And then I keep answering, I don't know.
204
Can you try to be a little bit more active
205
or offer a little bit more guidance instead of being quieter and asking only open -ended questions?
206
Can you help me understand stuff or guide me in some way?
207
And some therapists may feel really uncomfortable with that.
208
They may turn that around into a question, why do you feel like you need more guidance?
209
I don't know, because this doesn't seem to be helping very much.
210
So you can just ask them to change their style a little bit.
211
And the third thing that you can do if number one and number two don't work is after two or three sessions,
212
I would just go to them and say, hey, I don't feel like I'm actually getting a whole lot out of this therapy.
213
So you seem to be asking certain questions that I have difficulty answering.
214
And I'm hoping that you can recommend a different therapist who's a little bit more active,
215
can offer a little bit more guidance or asks questions in a way that can help me understand my emotions better.
216
And I know that this sounds mortifying.
217
Oh my God, as a dude, why would I ever do that?
218
As anyone, as any patient, why would I ask to see a different therapist?
219
It means that I don't think they're good.
220
And it doesn't mean that they're not good.
221
It just means that they're not really helping you very much.
222
Or at the minimum, you can have a conversation about what's working and what isn't.
223
And then hopefully y 'all can work through that stuff.
224
So I, as a therapist, actually don't feel, I mean, I feel bad in some ways,
225
but I'm really grateful for all of my patients who have come to me and said, hey, Dr. K, this is not working.
226
Because then one of two things happen.
227
One is either we work on it, and then we actually make a breakthrough of some kind, and now we're really jiving together,
228
or I recommend that the person go see someone else.
229
And what's my duty as a doctor or someone's duty as a therapist?
230
It's to help the person, not help the person myself.
231
It means giving that person whatever kind of help they need.
232
So oddly enough, I'm still recommending that y 'all try psychotherapy because it is still an evidence -based, very effective approach.
233
The other thing to consider, though, is that a lot of emotions live in our body.
234
And as men, sometimes we need to do more bodily stuff.
235
So there are studies that show that...
236
Tai Chi and yoga, for example, are effective treatments for a lot of things like mood disorders or anxiety or things like that.
237
So adding a physical component to your emotional health is very, very helpful.
238
The other thing to consider is that there's a range of new and kind of in vogue things called somatic therapies.
239
So these are therapies that incorporate the body in some way.
240
So good examples of this are EMDR or EFT, which is the emotional freeing technique or tapping.
241
So when I first encountered these studies about 10 or 15 years ago, and I used to sort of,
242
my area of interest was evidence -based complementing alternative medicine, I thought all this stuff was like kind of BS, right?
243
So it's like the idea behind tapping is
244
that your emotions are stored in your body and that you can tap on certain parts to free emotions.
245
And I was like, this doesn't make any sense.
246
This is all BS.
247
And it turns out that over the last decade or so, there have been some studies that actually show that this is a pretty effective technique.
248
We're not really 100 % sure you know, the studies aren't super high quality,
249
but there's more and more evidence that stuff that is not classically effective may be effective.
250
And specifically that a lot of somatic therapies seem to be gaining a lot of weight and gaining a lot of interest.
251
So I encourage y 'all to seek out more bodily oriented kind of evidence -based techniques.
252
And the last thing that I just want to share with y 'all is that I've seen that across the globe,
253
there's a lot more men's work kind of going on.
254
And this isn't psychotherapy, but it's just sort of groups of men will get together
255
and will participate in all kinds of either communication or even like some sorts of like physical rituals or like taking hikes.
256
There's sort of this very like physical component to their emotional health, which they all sort of get together and do.
257
So I can't speak to specific things like that.
258
I'm just sort of pointing that out as a trend.
259
So at the end of the day, I know it sounds kind of weird,
260
but I do think that therapy sucks for men for a lot of reasons.
261
Some of that has to do with the way that we're raised.
262
Some of that has to do with the way that psychotherapy was developed.
263
And so as men, we sort of really need to think a little bit about how can I become emotionally healthy?
264
So I definitely give therapy a shot, but go in with some of these disclaimers in mind.
265
Go in understanding that you may not be perfectly suited to this, that you're stepping onto the basketball court,
266
but you don't necessarily know how to dribble.
267
And so just recognize that and ask your therapist for help.
268
And the second thing to consider is that especially as men, a lot of our emotions live in our bodies.
269
We may need to leverage our bodies or do some kind of bodily work to really help us achieve emotional health.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
