@thetimes: “To be clear, Brad Pitt isn’t saying he was suicidal. But he did succumb to an ideation of self-destruction (the cold steel bullet). Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50 in the UK, although the rate is highest among men aged 50-54, roughly Brad’s vintage, I think, at the time of his darkest thoughts. Fourteen men die by their own hand every day in the UK. That’s 5,110 a year. It’s a grim, grisly subject. What to make of the superstar’s intervention? Is it likely to increase these shocking numbers, or reduce them? I’m conflicted” | ✍️ Robert Crampton The actor Brad Pitt has revealed a past brush with ‘self-destruction.’ Can celebrity candour really help? *FOR NEWS PURPOSES* #news #bradpitt #celebritynews #MentalHealth #celebrity

I think the benefit is just how you said it. Here is a man that has looks, wealth, fame etc... and he is struggling. Men can say if he has all of that and is struggling, I have one of those maybe it's more common than I thought? What men need is how to recognize signs, where to ask for help

Of course they should… surely him saying that it was a period of time shows that he got through it and that things can and do get better?
