Has anyone got any experience of going to one of the sessions?
For context, Andy's Man Club is a non judgmental meeting where any man over 18 years old can go if he is struggling with mental health issues and feels unable to talk to people close to him.
I've reached a point where I'm thinking of trying it out. |

Nothing to lose up by trying it once. Don’t be afraid just take one step infront of the other and see how the experience is  |

"*UPDATE *
I went. I can't say it was amazing, but it opened my eyes. I'll go again, and see how I feel after a few more weeks.
Thanks to you all for the support. "
Glad you took the first step ( it's always the hardest thing to do ) hopefully it will give you the help and support you need xx |

If you’ve reached the point where you’re thinking of it, you 100% should go. |

Good for you for reaching out OP. I’ve heard good things about Andy’s man club - I hope you continue to enjoy the sessions. If this may help, there is also a text support service called SHOUT (I don’t think I am allowed to share links, so I would suggest Googling) and a mens group called ‘Never Throw In The Towel’ project, who are North East based and have occasional outdoor meet-ups/ wellbeing sessions. (Might be a bit far to travel but worth a look). |

I live in an area with the highest suicide rates in the country
Been to this a few times as don't know anybody here really and some of the harrowing stories are taxing to hear but that's life
Saw what 50 pubs close a month in UK now? and what if you don't drink much or at all?
At this you just chat and listen nothing else ulterior going on
Reminds me of Croc Dundee when they meet that woman at a party who had a problem and seen a psychologist he exclaims "hasn't she got any mates?" |
