    Stopping male suicide, BBC two 9pm

    Biggest killer of men in UK under fifty , more than cancer and car crashes

    Guess which gets the most funding ?

    Clue , mental health gets 14% despite topping the list

    Difficult one mental health.

    I suffer from stress and depression, and take meds to combat it, but I think a lot of it was self inflicted.

    Drink, drugs (recreational) and gambling to excess hasn’t really helped tbh.

    A lot of people I know who let’s say partied to excess in the rave days have issues with this now, or have in the last 20 years. Some fall, some struggle, some come out unscathed. Exercise has always been good to me and many others I know.

    If you can get by without going down the meds route, I would def suggest putting in a pair of daps and go for a run, whatever state of fitness you are in, just do it. You won’t regret it.

    During 30 years living and working in London, I had 4 friends/ colleagues who took their own lives, all men, all under 50.
