Men are affected by everyday stress, high workloads, anxiety and depression, loss of confidence or identity, relationship breakdowns, family disruption, addictions and trauma - just the same as women. But society has placed a stigma on men's mental health. Men have found it hard to reach out in the past because of a sense of shame that comes from our society. But men are changing. They are re-defining what it is to be 'strong', and are more open to understanding their emotions and reaching out for help. The Changing Man: A Mental Health Guide explores a range of issues affecting men's emotional health and wellbeing, and provides a collection of tried and tested tools to ensure no man suffers in silence again. From dealing with addiction, to bettering relationships, overcoming depression, working through sexuality concerns and realising that it is okay not to be okay, The Changing Man's methods and knowledge may just change your emotional health for the better. No shame. No silence. No anger.

An empowering and informative mental health guide that addresses the stigmas surrounding men's mental health, and gives men the tools to break through them.
Too many men are suffering with their emotional health issues in silence, and male suicide is still one of the biggest causes of death in men under 50. Men are affected by everyday stress, high workloads, anxiety and depression, loss of confidence or identity, relationship breakdowns, family disruption, addictions, and trauma - just the same as anyone else. But society has placed a stigma on men's mental health, making it difficult for them to reach out for help.
Thankfully, times are changing. Masculinity no longer means suffering in silence, and more and more men are opening up about their emotions. The Changing Man aims to help men along the path to addressing their mental wellbeing, providing tools for:
• Tackling stress, anxiety and depression
• Managing substance-related issues
• Dealing with grief
• Working on relationships
• Preventing suicide and self-harm
In a changing and developing world, we need advice that keeps up. The Changing Man is just that: a realistic and hopeful manual for the men of today to address their mental health without shame.
