@benchinbricky: Construction’s silent killer. Suicide. A construction worker is 3x more likely to commit suicide than in any other industry. 2 workers per day. That’s fact. It’s clear we all need to do more which is why I’m aiming to use my voice and platform to do what I can. If you can attend the charity football match and show your support, you can find tickets in my link in bio as me and lots of other great tradespeople on socials target making a difference to the industry. Please please if you’re struggling right now, understand it’s ok for you to talk, to acknowledge you’re struggling and to seek support from your family, friends and co-workers. There are support networks for you in the likes of the @Lighthouse Charity @ANDYSMANCLUB @Mind who can assist you. Together we can all make a difference. #construction #constructionuk #trades #bluecollar #constructionlife #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #mensmentalhealth #fyp
I absolutely hate my job but I have no other skills or experience and can’t do anything else

It's a horrible industry, bullying young man and women all day long, mocking never stops. avoid working init at all costs.

I disagree , all the talking about mental health is the biggest problem it’s making our young men and even more so young boys because of the schooling system and over zealous parenting emotionally led
