The mental health of men has taken centre stage at an awareness event in Kayamandi township outside Stellenbosch.

Amid Men’s Health Month, Western Cape Health authorities say too many men are suffering in silence, while help is available.Phikolomzi Ngonyama, a member of the local gentlemans’ club, says they work as a collective to help men overcome the many challenges they face.

“You have to provide for the entire family as young men. So, that, on its own … they budget on your behalf even before you get your salary. So, that gives a lot of pressure on us men. So, we really discuss such issues and mental health really gets to us because there is depression and anxiety that comes to play when we are having these pressures. When you get your salary you have to provide, you have to split it for more than seven or thirteen people at your household.
