It's time to break the stigma on men's mental health and bring awareness. It's not unmanly to struggle. We need to encourage men to speak out and let them know they don't have to suffer in silence.

Did You Know?...

  • Men are 3 times more likely to die by suicide.
  • Men aged between 40-49 have the highest suicide rates in the UK.
  • Men report lower levels of life satisfaction than women.
  • Men are less likely to access psychological therapies than women. Only 36% of referrals to NHS talking therapies are men.
  • 86% of rough sleepers are men.
  • Men are nearly 3 times as likely as women to become dependent on alcohol, and 3 times as likely to report frequent drug use.
  • Men are more likely to be compulsory detained (or 'sectioned') for treatment than women.
 
We need to empower men to feel comfortable to open up and reach out if they need help.
