It took him crying in front of his manager to realize he needed to get help with his mental health and depression.
In this episode, Sukhie Shergill shares his journey with depression and when and how he finally got help.
We discuss this and:
• How you can help someone even if you’re not a professional
• How to make it easy for men to open up.
• Why it’s difficult for men to open up
• Sukhie’s struggle with depression
• How to determine which friend/family member to open up to
• The physical signs that you need to address your mental health
Sukhie in his own words:
Sukhie lives and works in the UK. Divorced father of 2. Mental health advocate every other time.
Having struggled with my mental health for years, without proper diagnoses, or solution, I try and help where I can, especially with men’s mental health, because, lets face it, seldom do we, men, open up about our emotions and what is really bothering us inside.
I champion talking about our emotions, I wear my heart on my sleeve, so, if asked 'how am I today?' be prepared, I always answer honestly.
