Goverdhanji,
Read the below mentioned post I just copy pasted:
Man's Voice is a helpline for men because in general they are conditioned or socialised such that they are unable to share their conflicts, sorrows and other mental and emotional pain with another in their family or in their social circuit. If they cry, they are considered to be weak in most societies including the Indian community. Hence, they tend to withold, suppress or repress their feelings even when faced with traumatic situations, break-ups, victimisation due to lop-sided laws concerning their families, which can result in depression. This depression can result in problems in the family and at workplace.
A team of professional counsellors will provide guidance to men, who need a confidential listening ear, and direct them to proper channels if and when needed.
How do I contact a Man's Voice Counsellor?
You can contact them through smses/calls to their mobile phones, through emails or at their websites/portals. At least the first two sessions will be free except where indicated. The fees for the follow up/special sessions will depend on the counsellor. The callers are free to continue with the counsellors or find their own counsellors after the free sessions.

As per statistic read in Papers Men are the worst suferers. This is because women speak out but men in pain and distress do not speak out and ultimately lose mental balance and even commit suicide. Since the laws of land favouring women more than men eve a wink at a girl from a boy could invite trouble.
True long time back women were more miserable but then times have now changed and women have become more knowledgeable and are seeing the world and also hold high posts in so many organisations. Even the President/Prime Minister of India are/have been Women and also elsewhere
