Suicide is the single biggest killer of men aged under 45 in the UK. In 2015, 75% of all UK suicides were male. It' a shocking statistic, but it doesn't have to be that way. Few people go through life without, at some point, having a suicidal thought or feeling. While suicidal feelings are more common than we like to admit, it doesn't mean that it' the answer for you. There are always other options. What makes people suicidal? There's never one reason, but usually a combination of things:


A major loss, trauma or setback in your life can make you feel life isn't worth living, for example. If you've lost a person or a relationship that meant everything to you, or you lose your job or encounter financial difficulties, all of which are problems that can be tackled and resolved with your support. We can provide much-needed counselling and support to men that are struggling to cope.

Most suicidal people don't actually want to die, they just want to remove themselves from an unbearable situation.
