Description

Note: This episode includes discussion of suicide statistics.

Men’s mental health is getting more attention these days—yet many still struggle to ask for help. Why? For Movember, hosts Carol and Jeevan dive into this issue with Dr. John Oliffe. This UBC professor and founder of the Men’s Health Research program shares insights into the moments that hit men the hardest, why so many avoid seeking support, and what can truly help men open up. 

If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide and in Canada, call or text the 9-8-8 Suicide Crisis Helpline. If you’re at immediate risk, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department.
