1 in 10 men are receiving treatment for depression. Shocking, right? 😔 But on a week which opened with #InternationalMensDay, let's address the elephant in the room: Could the true figure be even higher? Here's the harsh reality: Many men struggle in silence, trapped in outdated notions of masculinity. But there's hope yet! Here are practical, actionable ways to alleviate depression: 1️⃣ Open dialogue: Break the silence. Encourage conversations about mental health in your circles. 2️⃣ Seek professional help: Therapy isn't a sign of weakness; it's a step towards empowerment. 3️⃣ Build a support network: Connect with others who understand and can offer a listening ear. And whilst we have you, here are some signs to help spot depression in others: • Notice changes in behaviour or mood. • Pay attention to withdrawn or isolated tendencies. • Look for signs of hopelessness or excessive guilt. It's time to redefine strength, not as the absence of vulnerability, but as the courage to face and heal emotional battles. To support this notion, we're launch a pay-as-you-go online therapy platform where men (& others!) can access therapy matched to their needs, in private and at honest pricing. #InternationalMensDay #Depression #MentalHealth #Therapy #Counselling #KindMind
