☀"Men’s ( and Boys) Mental Health"☀
Our society and culture sadly make it quite difficult for men to discuss and deal with their inner struggles.
No doubt for many men, talking about mental health issues with family, let alone a mental health professional can seem terrifying and tough, maybe even intimidating.
It might surprise many, to know that the rate of mental health disorders between females and males is about the same, but men are less likely to speak about it… and seek help.
Tragically the way men deal with "themselves". The way they deal with their stresses, their anxieties, and worries….,their personal coping mechanisms are leading them and their families to suffer so much…. So needlessly.
So is it any wonder that;
👉Men are 3 times more likely to die by su***de that women.
👉Men are 2 times more likely to die due to drug use than women.
👉And deaths by alcohol abuse-related causes are nearly 2 times that of women.
👉👉Destructive coping mechanisms lead to destructive and tragic endings.
👉👉“Going it alone” only increases the risks, increases the pain.
Our clinicians are specialised in providing personalised, solutions-based techniques and strategies …., enabling change within you and empowering you to improve your “mental fitness”.
