#AndysManClub tonight at the same venue as last week but with more men and more laughs. We can get very childish but that's OK because the world wants us to be so serious most of the time
Question about what would you take if you had to leave everything but fill one rucksack. Answer was simple for me.
This guy right here
@spytfyre I came across #AndysManClub recently at an event I was involved in. I had a great talk with the guys about their ethos. I love what they're doing for men's mental health.
Over the past couple of months I’ve come to realise that I have a lot of issues dealing with emotional responses, both my own and others’. This came to a head recently, and I hurt someone I care about deeply. While we are resolving our problems, I knew I had to do something more.
So I decided to go to a session at the local #AndysManClub. As someone with virtually no friends outside of work, this was waaay outside my comfort zone, but I knew I needed to do it and I didn’t waver.
#AndysManClub is a peer group where men can go and talk in a judgement-free setting, with like-minded individuals who just need to talk. And I did - I cried in front of a group of total strangers for the first time ever. And I came out of that one session already feeling better about myself and ready to do more.
Aside from just writing about this from a personal perspective, I also wanted to say this: Men, don’t keep stuff bottled up. Don’t do what I did and keep pushing your feelings away. The world sucks sometimes and it’s okay to be upset by it. And if there’s a single thing you feel you can’t talk about, find a way to do it, even if it’s far outside your comfort zone. You’ll feel a lot better.
#ItsOkayToTalk
I've been going since September and have performed 4 times. It's my main social event where I get outside. I just started #AndysManClub too, but that's not on this week.
I’m working with my support network to help me start doing the things I love and need again. I’m asking Cs mum to come over on Thursday evenings so I can attend church home group. A church friend is coming over on Monday so that I can attend #AndysManClub. It’s so crippling being trapped in the house because C is not well enough to be left alone to care for baby.

C said I should go to #AndysManClub tonight so that I can get support, so that I can in turn better support her. I need to go but I’m worried she’s not well enough to cope with baby while I’m out for 2.5 hours. We’ll see.

The best thing I learnt at the AMC was not to worry about things you have no control over as it really counterproductive in the end.

Great #AndysManClub tonight. Got some anxieties off my chest about my relationship with C, and shared my hurt and frustration at how my ex wife has been poisoning my #kids against C and I again. I can’t really put into words how important this group of brothers are to me. I’m doing my first #volunteering slot for them in the morning - handing out fliers and business cards at the train station.

1/n Went to my second #AndysManClub last night and shared this week’s triggering event. I wouldn’t have dealt with it if it weren’t for that group. Was talking about C and how she told me last Thursday that she was going out that Saturday night. It was going to be her second night out since we met in early January but her friend had to rearrange. She was going out with 2 of her girlfriends from work. This triggered me for a number of reasons and made me feel like sh!t.

As a #SoftwareEngineer and keen #Cyclist it probably comes as no surprise that I am "powered" by #Coffee
So, I'm delighted to learn that Rory, an #ANDYSMANCLUB facilitator in Bately who also happens to be a coffee roaster at Chipp Coffee Co, has combined his two passions, and released an 'AMC Coffee' with 100% of profits going to AMC. 👌
