Season 2 | Episode 3 | MICHAEL MARSH We Are Men

Michael moved from NZ to Australia at 15 and lived a very happy and successful life until it all came crashing down in a psychotic episode, and ended up detained in mental health institutions. He took the opportunity to get better, working with psychologists and medications and now works in the Integrated Mental Health In Patient Unit as a support worker. Local heroes, community leaders, the mate that lives across the road. In a bid to tackle male suicide and the stigma surrounding men’s mental health, We Are Men is a community of real men talking about their real struggles. These men are opening up and discussing their mental health so other blokes can too, without the fear of shame or exclusion. It can be hard to ask for help but no man needs to struggle alone. Through our video stories, podcast, app (Onlyhuman) and highlighting of local services, we hope to encourage all men to chat about what they’re going through and seek help.This series of We Are Men is funded by the Country SA PHN
