Trigger Warning: Suicide and Eating Disorders.
In this episode, we have a very special guest Ben West joining us to discuss male body image. Ben is one of the UK’s leading mental health campaigners. Ben is dedicated to raising awareness about mental health, including suicide prevention and pushing for essential systematic changes in the governmental and educational approaches. We chat to Ben about the stigma attached to male body image, the various factors that contribute to these struggles, and explore ways in which both individuals and society can offer support to those facing these challenges. This podcast is based on our personal experience and not professional research: if you are struggling, please seek professional help.
