As a man, you don't really like talking about things, especially me. I felt like I was in a rut and I just could not get out of it... It was a bad time and you just shut yourself off.
Stuart Butler welcomes Sam Killip for an eye-opening chat about men's mental health on 'Henry Weston's Old Mate'. Sam, who previously joined Stuart to talk about golf, bravely opens up about a tough period he faced with his mental health around four years ago. This episode, airing during Men's Mental Health Week, is a candid look at the struggles many men endure but often keep hidden.
Sam shares how difficult it was to admit he needed help, feeling trapped in a cycle of silence and despair. His turning point came when he sought professional help, describing the relief as a huge weight lifted off his shoulders. The conversation underscores the importance of talking openly about mental health and seeking support. It also highlights how activities like running can be beneficial for mental well-being.
If you or someone you know is grappling with mental health issues, remember, it's good to talk and people are ready to help.
