What to do about menopausal depression

Usually, most people think that menopause is something that only women experience. In fact, men are the same and will also experience menopause.

So what should we do if men have menopausal depression? Next, let’s take a look at the main groups of men who suffer from menopausal depression and the precautions.

1. Mental Adjustment

Usually, you should read more books rich in Zen and philosophy, don't focus too much on those exciting and thrilling books, listen to more soft and peaceful music. Pay attention to cultivating a good mentality, strengthen psychological cultivation, develop the habit of doing psychological analysis, communicate more with relatives and friends, and vent your emotions at the right time.
