George, do you think there's still a bit of stigma around men's mental health?

Yeah, I think so.

It seems like it can still be hard for blokes to talk about how they're really feeling.

There's a pressure to be the strong silent type and to pretend everything's okay.

Otherwise you're seen as a bit of a moaner.

Yeah, for me, I feel like men are under a lot of pressure, the pressure

to perform, to provide, and to keep it all together all the time. But the problem for me is,

if they bottle things up, then that can lead to issues like depression, burnout or other unhealthy

habits. Yeah, I think it's really important to know that it's okay to struggle. The most

important thing is to talk about how you're doing. So if you're a man

who's feeling the weight of the world, talk to someone. That could be a friend, a loved one or a

therapist. As the largest online therapy provider in the world, BetterHelp can provide access

to mental health professionals with a diverse variety of expertise. Talk it out with BetterHelp.

do you know what? I'm so proud of Kit with his reading. He's actually doing super well in maths,

but I feel like both of them need a little bit of extra support and that's something that you're

really good at doing, right? Yeah, I think for both of them, having that extra support outside of

school hours has helped with their confidence as well
