  • I was mostly referring to the upfront cost of seeking help or if there is help available it’s almost exclusively focused on substance use. I’m lucky in that I was able to find the help I needed at my uni but when I graduate I will no longer have access to it and I don’t know of any equivalent that isn’t privately owned.

    *To add on, the health care centre I attended had many therapists and you would book a session with whomever would likely have things in common with you. So if you were a guy you would likely book a session with another guy as their would be more common ground there. Thus I don’t understand why they are focused on mens mental health, when anyone accessing mental health services would be able to book an appoinment with a professional that would suite their needs.

    Of course this assumes these facilities are as diversely staffed as mine. Maybe the actual issue is that men aren’t able to get the help they need even if they have access or rather, can afford it.

    Well, I think I’ve written more then the actual article now, so who knows.
