Craig Spillane ‘We need to talk about male suicide’ at Being the Story

Electrician by day, Craig Spillane set up Men Unite one morning in 2019, sat on the toilet before work. He wanted to give some friends of his an outlet to speak and not be judged. Men Unite is a closed private group on Facebook to help men deal with any issues they face; suicidal thoughts, depression and anxiety, stress, PTSD, addiction issues, debt, bereavement, or any associated issues. They now have over 12,000 members in 78 countries. They have a team of volunteer admin from around the world so there’s a real person available to chat 24 hours a day. The Coronavirus pandemic is having a huge impact on people’s mental health – with triggers ranging from being in lockdown isolation to struggling with money due to job losses. In this talk he describes the impact of lockdown on men’s mental health and how online support networks like Men Unite are providing a vital connection for men around the world. https://menunite.org/ Being the Story is brought to you by sounddelivery.
