As we celebrate Father's Day today, we're shining light on father's mental health. Did you know that fathers can experience postpartum depression too?
We caught up with our friend Rui who talked about his fatherhood struggles, reminding dads that mental health doesn't discriminate. Society places unrealistic expectations on fathers too which impacts mental health.
Hear Rui's story here:
Brought to you by real people with real stories, our Shared Experiences series shines light on the mental health struggles we all commonly face. 1 in 5 people experience a mental illness in a given year and by the time someone reaches 40, the prevalence is 1 in 2 and many don't reach out for help. At MindBeacon, we strive to change that. Care to share your story and help others remember they're not alone? Reach out to community@mindbeacon.com to play your part in removing the stigma.
If you're struggling, we're here to help. Reach out to us or visit us here to complete your assessment if you're ready to start your therapy journey.
