Men’s mental health - common challenges
Men’s mental health issues often go unrecognised, even by those experiencing them.

Whats depression
Depression is a common mental health condition that affects many irishmen. Learn more about depression – its symptoms, causes, and treatment options.
While everyone experiences periods of feeling low and sad – whether from a challenging workday, difficult news, or occasional unexplained sadness – those feelings tend to go away after a short period of time. However, if you have depression, those feelings do not go away easily, and it is hard to move on and recover. When you have depression, in addition to feeling sad, you may also feel hopeless, empty, and lonely. Everyday activities can start to feel difficult, and you may stop doing things you once enjoyed. read more
