Blue Soul Shoes by Ashley Riley
77% of men have suffered with common mental health symptoms like anxiety, stress or depression.
40% of men have never spoken to anyone about their mental health.
Three quarters of all suicides in the UK are men.
Yes but it happens to ‘other’ men doesn’t it?
You know those shy, uncomfortable, fragile and lacking in confidence men.
At the start of 2023 as an outgoing, comfortable, loud, business owning confident man I started suffering from a low mood and had a brief panic attack.
Within a month it turned in to life stopping anxiety and deep, dark depression.
Living with depression and anxiety, living in a pair of blue soul shoes is life limiting. It is awful.
But you can come out the other side. You can do something about it.
I hope by sharing my story I can help others.
