Trigger Warning: This episode discusses suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to the Suicide Crisis Hotline at 988 in Canada or go to headsupguys.org. Help is available.
The facts are shocking.
Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death for men under the age of 50.
Men die by suicide at 3X the rate that women do in North America and elsewhere.
Why? What’s going on with men? And why is there silence around men and suicide?
Dr. John Ogrodniczuk is on a mission to help men and bring more awareness to this issue.
He created a program at UBC called HeadsUpGuys, a mental health resource designed for men and their families.
If you’re a man who’s finding it difficult to cope, or you have a male in your life - a family member, a friend or a colleague – please listen to this interview.
