What’s on Your Mind?

You don’t need to know exactly what you’re feeling to start exploring. You might be dealing with stress, anger, anxiety, depression or relationship difficulties.

Understanding the options can help you prepare questions and decide what to explore next. Read about talking therapies, medication, everyday wellbeing habits and complementary approaches.

The evidence, risks and suitability vary between approaches. These pages provide general information to support conversations with a qualified healthcare professional, rather than personalised treatment recommendations.

Find a Men’s Support Group Near You

You might prefer a talking group, a walk with others or an online meet-up. Our men’s group directory helps you explore independent groups across the UK and find out what they offer.

Each group works differently. Check the organiser’s website for current meeting times, joining requirements and what to expect before attending. You don’t have to share your story straight away—ask the organiser how newcomers can take part.

What Does MMH Stand For?

MMH stands for Men’s Mental Health. It reflects our aim to make men’s mental health information, signposting, and external support options easier to find, understand, and approach.

“mmh” is also a sound people use when listening, thinking, or encouraging someone to keep talking. That fits the purpose of MMH: helping men find information, services, groups, and public resources in a way that feels more approachable.

Find Support. Your Way.

Everyone’s path is different. We help with the signposts.

Why MMH CIC Exists

MMH CIC was founded from lived experience and a simple problem: finding support can feel harder than it should. When you are struggling, searching through scattered websites and unfamiliar services can feel like another barrier.

We bring general information and links to external services, men’s groups and helplines together to make that search easier. MMH does not provide direct support, counselling, diagnosis or crisis intervention.

Why Men’s Mental Health Signposting Matters

Knowing where to turn can be difficult, especially when you are already struggling. Clear information about the options available, who they are for and how to contact them can make the search more manageable.

The figures below show some of the challenges affecting men and why making support easier to find matters.

“I created MMH because I know how it feels to be in that dark place, feeling there is only one way out.
Scrolling through my phone, needing help, but feeling no-one cares, no-one will listen. There are people that care, they will listen. You matter and there is no shame in needing help. Reach out.”

— Adam, Founder of MMH Men’s Mental Health CIC
