Men's mental health (breaking the stigma) 2018
Channel: Mountain Mikes Adventures
Date: 2018-05-16

Men's mental health is a topic that we men need to start to really get to grips with. However, it's not just a topic having healthy mental health is so vital to a positive happy life it's such a shame that so many of us don't hold it in the high regard it should be in. 

In this video, I look at some of the statistics on men's mental health and look to start changing the mindset we have. These stats shocked me when I was doing my research and show the urgent need to get the conversations flowing. 

Please feel free to comments below and your opinions on male mental health. 

If you're a man and feel like life is crushing weight then there are things you can do. Reach out to people and stop suffering in silence.
