Men's Mental Health: A Silent Crisis
Karen Straughan Tour of South Western Ontario
Recorded on February 27th, 2018
London Public Library Central Branch
Event hosted by Canadian Association for Equality London
******************************************************************
When women begin to slip into crisis, they often have greater access to social and formal systems that can help them apply the brakes. Social networks to lean on, family members who understand the warning signs women give, government programs, crisis centres, shelters, counselling largely tailored to their psychological needs, special, and gender-prioritized assistance with housing, recovery, employment and ongoing coping strategies. Men are much more likely to lack access to any or all of these important obstacles that halt the downward spiral, and they are therefore more likely to find their way to the very bottom. The consequences of this are often disastrous for these men, their loved ones, and for society.
