Stigma can shame people into silence. Rather than telling men to 'man up', we should encourage them to open up and share their feelings.
There's no shame in reaching out for help if you are feeling stressed, depressed, or experiencing a suicidal crisis.❤️
#InternationalMensDay
ALT Title reads 'Supporting men'. Underneath are two columns. Under the one reading 'Instead of....' text reads:
‘Just man up’
‘You need to toughen up’
‘Real men don’t cry’
‘Stop acting weak’
‘You’ll get over it’
Pull yourself together’
Underneath the column reading 'Try saying...' text reads:
‘Take your time. I’m here to listen’
‘I’m so sorry you’ve been feeling like this’
‘I can see this has been really difficult for you’
‘Can you tell me more?’
‘Thank you for telling me how you’ve been feeling’
‘Let’s find you some further support together’
The funding crisis means we all miss out on the benefits of the arts.
