Men's Mental Health
Mental health is essential for a happy and full life, yet there is often a lack of awareness and understanding of how men experience mental health. Perceptions of masculinity, gender stereotypes and stigma, can also make it harder for men to recognize when they might need support. As a result of these complex factors, there is a disproportionate difference between the number of males experiencing mental health disorders and those seeking treatment. This session will explore men’s mental health and unpack the key components of psychological well-being for men, delving into some of the more damaging societal norms that disempower men from accessing help.
