Why are men still dying in silence while the world stays quiet

In this powerful episode of Raw Minds, Erick sits down with viral men's mental health advocate Char for an unfiltered conversation that exposes the silence around male pain, suicide, and the double standards that leave men unseen and unsupported.

Char has built a massive platform focused on saving lives. With millions of views, a Discord community, a support team, and a 24/7 mental health hotline, she’s created space for men to finally be heard. She’s also endured backlash, threats, and hate — all for refusing to stay quiet about what men go through.

This is not about taking sides. It’s about saving lives.

In this episode

Why men are dying by suicide at alarming rates

The reality of secondhand suicide and invisible suffering

Char’s journey through homelessness addiction and incarceration

False accusations and the silent battles in family court

Why therapy often fails men and what actually works

Raising emotionally strong boys without shame

Creating safe digital spaces that help men heal

The raw truth no one else is saying out loud

This conversation is not just important. It is necessary.
