This is the Man Down Cornwall campaign video for 2024. It’s a thought-provoking watch, but that’s exactly what we want it to be. Far too many men suffer in silence and are not able to talk openly about how they feel about themselves, their lives and the world around... them. The stigma of male mental health needs to end. Man Down run talking meetings around Cornwall (UK) for men with mental health concerns. Meetings are run by male volunteers with lived experience of mental health. We run these meetings to help men talk to other men in a safe, supportive environment without judgement. Together we can eradicate the stigma of male mental health. We want this video to be shared far and wide. We want to make men understand that the trauma effect and the destruction left behind after a life is taken is unbearable and utterly devastating for everyone involved. We are so very proud to share this with you all. #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthSupport #cornwall #cornwallmamdown #LetsTalkAboutIt #NeverGiveUpshow more

@cornwallmandown @angeladunn6 That’s a tough watch and I have been there. Luckily I got through it. My heart goes out to everyone affected. ❤️

@cornwallmandown Well done. Is getting some traction on Spanish Twitter. Added some subtitles:

@cornwallmandown In my little Parish of Cornwall we have lost so many men to suicide. Sadly we have also lost women. Suicide must be talked about. Great video.

@cornwallmandown No one really cares until we are gone and they realise what we actually do, I am only still here because I can't do it to my son, if I was single I'd be dead!

@cornwallmandown This is a thought provoking video at a very difficult time of the year. Its so important to listen, read the signs and not be afraid to ask those closest if they are OK. ❤️

Lamadre Deltopo2 years ago

@cornwallmandown Nobody has an account of how many men commit suicide in Spain, not even the government. Nowadays being a man is something to hide, and our mental health is something that should be kept for ourselves. We do have to change this, nobody will do it for us.

@cornwallmandown Thank you for raising awareness of such an important subject and one so very close to my heart ❤️ I agree it’s very thought provoking but so important we keep challenging the stigma surrounding mens mental health & encourage more to seek help and talk. Thank you 🙏

@cornwallmandown Such a powerful video. The child's acting is just superb. It broke my heart a little. Thank you for this much needed message (especially as I am the mother of two men).

We are incredibly proud to share our new campaign video This powerful and poignant film tells the story of suicide bereavement and the devastating impact suicide leaves behind. Every month, 383 men lose their lives to suicide in the UK, leaving families, friends, colleagues and communities facing unimaginable grief, trauma and heartbreak. The ripple effect of every suicide is far reaching and life changing. At Man Down, we are fighting back against these statistics. Every day, we work to break down the barriers that prevent men from reaching out and talk about how they really feel underneath the mask. The shame. The stigma. The silence. But we can’t do this alone. We need your support to continue delivering the life changing work that our team is so passionate about. Can you stand with us ?? Can you support our mission to reduce the male suicide rate in the UK ?? Every conversation, every donation, every share and every act of support helps us reach more men who may be struggling. We would be incredibly grateful for your support. Let’s talk about it. If you want to get involved to help the men in your community then get in touch ! Thank you

10KM COMPLETED! So glad to have completed my third 10KM (6.2 miles) run to raise awareness for mental health. Really struggled at the end but I know that the mental health battle is harder and needs to be spoken about more. We are all in this battle together, you are never alone!

In the Conference on the Future of Europe, people told us how much they cared about mental health. And they are right. Because mental health is simply health. We listened. And today we act, with the first 🇪🇺 approach to mental health - from prevention to treatment and recovery.

Is masculinity in a crisis? In today’s episode, I sit down with writer and scholar Dr Richard Reeves. Richard is the Founder and President of the American Institute for Boys and Men, which is an organisation that researches and addresses issues affecting men in our modern society. In this conversation, we discuss: • The rising rate of male suicides. • Men’s mental health and masculinity. • The health benefits of marriage for men. • The toxic impact of Andrew Tate. And so much more! I used to believe - especially when I was in my early twenties, that I was invincible in terms of mental health. At that age I thought mental health issues were things that happened to other people. Eventually, I found out I was wrong! Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. This is a conversation that I hope invites others, but specifically men, to speak about their mental health and any struggles that they’re facing. Really look forward to hearing your thoughts.

⚠️This video may cause some distress and contains themes of suicide ⚠️ A very powerful and poignant story which unfortunately happens far too frequently. This video is an introduction into the new charity partnership we have formed with Pilkington Estates . They will very generously donate £100 for every house sale throughout 2025 to support our mission. Male suicide is still at an alarming rate here in the U.K. and we here at Man down are trying our best to significantly reduce those statistics. We offer men a safe, confidential and non judgmental space to talk and connect with other men who are finding life difficult to navigate through. We end the shame and the stigma by doing so and create a community of men who have found purpose to their pain. Let’s talk about it. #mandownuk2024💙 #MentalHealthMatters

The World Cup starts tonight! ⚽️ But by the end of the first match, we’ll be one man down. Someone dies by suicide in our country every 90 minutes. Three-quarters of these are men. I spoke with Luke the co-founder of #ANDYSMANCLUB about male suicide, mental health and the help that is out there. 👇 Andy's Man Club is an incredible organisation that helps men across Britain open up, talk about what is going on in their lives, and help one another. I have been to sessions in my constituency and was overwhelmed by the support they can offer men dealing with all sorts of problems in their lives - small or large. In each session, a football is passed around the group to share thoughts, challenges, and successes. Simple, but effective and liberating! As a government, we take mental heath - and men's mental health - seriously. We published England’s first Men's Health Strategy last year, which committed further funding for suicide prevention programmes, recognising that suicide is one of the biggest killer of men under 50. We are investing £3.6 million in community based suicide prevention projects - and supporting the Premier League Together Against Suicide initiative with Samaritans. And this is a challenge for all of us, not just government. As a society we can do more to encourage men to open up, get the weight off their shoulders. That is a key part of our Men and Boys work led by David Lammy - amplifying the issues, assuring folk there is help out there. Enjoy the football, look out for one another, and know there is support out there!

In the 90s and early 2000s, people talked far less about their so-called “mental health.” We were told the problem was “stigma” and that we should focus on increasing “mental health awareness” to fight it– which would, in turn, lessen rates of suffering. Today,” conversations about “mental health” are everywhere and access to treatment has never been higher. Yet more people are anxious, depressed, and unhappy than ever before. That should make us rethink the direction we have taken. DoctorTro Brian Lenzkes, MD

Damn I knew this was true but like you listen to insecure, unaware, narcissistic, misogynistic men enough you will stop believing what you know is true. And before I get hit with the “not all men” brigade I’m not talking about all men. I’m talking about the ones he is describing, they exist. I think men don’t really get how much a woman loves them. We want you to be better not just for us but for the children you will raise with us. FOR YOURSELF!! I’m speaking from an older person perspective, regret and realization of mistakes is a mutha. Health, especially mental health is so much more important than you think. Loving yourself enough to face your flaws and work on them takes courage and time and patience. It’s worth it though. Y’all want us to be our best? We want the same for you. I give a shout to THE GROWN ASS MEN WHO DOING THE WORK!! (Now I’m thinking this want fully Denzel talking but I like the point being made 😂)
