Hey guys, not sure if there's a thread like this on here already, bit thought id create one if not.

A lot of us are under stress and pressure from life in general so this is for any man who needs to chat; whether they have a simple issue, stress or a mental illness. This forum will remain completely non judgmental.

One of the most dangerous things facing young people, and young men in particular, is mental health problems, usually depression and/or anxiety.

In many, though obviously not all cases, this can lead to suicide, the majority of which could have been prevented by simply talking and seeking help.

Please use this thread to do just that - talk, open up. Do it anonymously, or do it from your current account - no one here will judge, I guarantee that you will find helping hands, many of whom have been through it and come out of the other side. We can also provide the appropriate signposting to further and suitable help for you.

Use it for help, or to help others, or for both.

We can't promise that we can fix your problems, but we can promise that the members posting here will try to help you feel better

Pineapple on pizza, Bacardi Breezers, Michael Bolton.

Exhibit A right here for mental problems, folks 😁

Just kidding, Vic!

Wasn’t that the theme for Chad’s last pool party? (Sorry mate).

It’s a good idea @The Punisher.

Not sure one thread will ever remain anonymous, but it’s nice to send a message to other posters that they can reach out.

I’ve reached out to posters before about non-sharks stuff. They have always been great.

Great Idea.
Great thread mate.

Appreciate the messages I’ve got from a few of the fellas on here. Means a lot!
Thanks guys
Just think that we need a place where we can drop the mask, and be there as blokes for one another, showing support as needed, so we're never 'alone'.

Need a mod (whoever they are) to pin it to the top thou

I love this hey

I’ve had family struggle with mental health and myself included at times, it’s such a big thing in society these days and everyone can always do their bit to help.

Sometimes i need to be able to vent/offload
I work in a high stress environment (physiotherapist on acute medical, surgical wards including intensive care), and i make tough calls on a daily basis which impact the lives of my patients and their families/significant others.
Whilst i gain a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction from what i do, its that 1% which hits hard and makes you question yourself
