Why book this talk about Male Mental Health?
You may know that 3 out of every 4 deaths by suicide in the UK and Ireland are men.
But did you also know that:
-
Talking and talking therapy are not addressing the key factors associated with suicide in men [1]
-
Between 2010 and 2022, the rate of men using talking therapies increased by 50%, and yet the rate of male suicide also increased - by 14% [2]
-
The most effective treatment for depression is not routinely discussed with men who are suffering from depression [3]
...And would you like to know what to do about it?
It's time to take an evidence-based approach to male mental health.
Sharing findings from groundbreaking studies, male mental health expert and TEDx speaker, Ryan Parke connects the dots between mental health, wellbeing and goal setting in men. Whether you are a man, or simply want to understand the men in your life, Ryan will reveal:
-
Why external factors (like football results) have such a large impact on male mental health, and simple ways to increase resilience
-
The key warning signs we must all be aware of in the men we care about
-
Small, science-backed steps that men can take to improve their mental health, physical health, and life expectancy
-
The role that hormones play in male mental health and how you can use this knowledge to improve overall wellbeing
-
How taking an evidence-based approach to male mental health has the proven potential to slow and reverse the rising rates of suicide and depression in men
Designed and delivered by Ryan, this fascinating and inclusive talk is as positive as it is serious. Delivered in an informal and fascinating style to groups of any size, you will leave with answers to your deepest questions about male mental health, specific strategies to improve outcomes for men, and a feeling of hope for the future.
