Christmas 2017 saw the death of a number of good tradesmen, family men. Each person had their own reason(s) for doing what they did and each situation will be so personal and complex that it is almost impossible to try and understand.
Keeping things to yourself and suffering in silence is something we are all guilty of but is all too common in men. Men are naturally proud of an ability to support, provide and be a figurehead for family and friends. Telling others our problems feels weak and as if we are being a burden on loved ones when all we want to do is take their problems and help support them.
Talk to real people about how you feel. There is always someone in your phone book, on your Facebook, online groups, friends, family and so on who would love to know that you are not ok so they can help, just how you know that you would want to help them if they were feeling the same.
