Surprisngly, when I was growing up the males that I was friends with were very open about their feelings. I was mainly surrounded by guys in my friendship group and them opening up to me, made me feel comfortable in opening up to them. Its still the same story now with my guy friends. I think its because I have that personality and work/volunteer in the mental health field. Now, its becoming more widely spoken about. However, my dad and brother struggle to open up. My brother numbs his pain and barely speaks of it. Its great that my younger brother seeks a youth friendly service which really helps him.

This is such a great topic to talk about!
I think it is very hard for a lot of males in to be open about whats going on in their head because of the fear of stigmatsation, letting down their guard and feeling isolated. As a community and through organisations like ReachOut, Headspace etc we can try and make it more comfortable of males to open up about whats really getting them down. Most males numb the pain however, it won't solve the problem.
You're not alone in this world <3 <3
