CW COUNSELLING- OCTOBER/NOVEMBER FOCUS MEN’S MENTAL HEALTH

IT’S NOT WEAK TO SPEAK

men’s emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing, which is impacted by unique challenges, including societal expectations of masculinity that discourage seeking help, leading to higher rates of su***de, substance abuse, and a reluctance to discuss feelings.

-Did you know men age 40-49 have the highest su***de rate
- Men are less likely to access therapy than women.

Some symptoms can include anger, irritability, withdrawal, increased alcohol or drug use, and physical issues, but men can also experience depression and anxiety like anyone else.

Seeking support, fostering open conversations, and challenging stigmas are vital to improve outcomes.

I’m worried about someone’s mental health. How can I help them?

If you’re concerned about a friend or relative, there are things you can do to help them.

Let them know you’re there to listen to them without judgement

Someone who is experiencing mental health problems may find it hard to reach out, so try to keep in touch.

A text message or a phone call could make a big difference

Find out about local services such as talking therapy or support groups. See if there are any specifically for men if you think they’d prefer that.

If you’re a man struggling with your mental health CW Counselling can support you through those difficult times. Contact Claire @ Counsellingwellbeing77@gmail.com
