Gotcha4Life- Gus Worland
In the week after Men’s Health Week, we decided to take a look into Men’s health ourselves, in particular mental health among men.
Mental health is a major issue among the male population, with statistics showing on average, that 1 in 8 men will experience depression in their lifetime and 1 in 5 will experience anxiety. In 2017, 3,123 people died by suicide in Australia, with 2,348 of them being men. So why are these scenarios occurring to so many people around the country and why do we not hear about it?
We got Founder of Men’s mental health charity Gotcha4Life Gus Worland in to speak about what more needs to be done in relation to this issue.
If you or someone you know needs help, here is the Lifeline number 131114.
