It's Men's mental health week. It's important to know that there is no shame in seeking help.

This week is Men's Health Week.

In Scotland, 3 in 4 suicides are male.

Mental health stigma is one of the biggest barriers people face when it comes to getting help.

We need to make sure that men of any age know that their mental health is nothing to be ashamed of - and you can ask for help. No one should struggle alone.

If you’re not in a great place, it is okay to talk about it.

Tomorrow is Time to Talk Day and it's a chance for all of us to be more open about mental health – to talk, to listen, to change lives.
The pandemic means that talking about mental health is more important than ever before. But small gestures can make a big difference, even when we have to be socially distanced.
Join See Me and make today the time to talk about mental health. Find out more: https://bit.ly/2Ka85Dy

See Me is led by a partnership of SAMH and MHF Scotland and is funded by the Scottish Government and Comic Relief.

It is a difficult time for many people, I feel it is important for people to remember to breath. Take 5 minuets for yourself and just focus on your breath. Deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
