Men urged to break silence on mental health
The outreach formed part of efforts to increase mental health awareness among men and encourage early help-seeking to reduce the growing burden of mental illness and suicide in the country.
The statistics, M4M Ghana noted, underscored the urgent need to tackle stigma, improve access to mental health services and encourage more men to seek support without fear of discrimination or ridicule.
MEN have been urged to speak openly about stress, depression and other mental health challenges instead of suffering in silence, as experts warn that deeply rooted cultural beliefs continue to prevent many from seeking help until it is too late.
