# Men's health concerns: Signs of mental health issues
|
|
|
|
## Anxiety and depression are the most common mental health problems in the
|
|
UK and it often takes a partner to recognise the signs of these mental health
|
|
issues.

|
|
|
|
In the UK, anxiety and depression are the most common mental health problems,
|
|
and the majority of cases are caused by stress. Men over 50 can experience
|
|
many life changes such as redundancy, retirement, children getting married,
|
|
financial worries, which can cause stress.
|
|
|
|
**Symptoms**
|
|
|
|
**Acute stress** can cause trembling, hyperventilating, vomiting, and in those
|
|
with asthma, an attack.

|
**Chronic stress** can cause emotional issues such as irritability, anger,
|
|
apathy, anxiety, irrational behaviour, loss of appetite, comfort eating, lack
|
|
of concentration, loss of libido. It can also cause excessive tiredness, skin
|
|
problems, aches and pains, heart palpitations and feeling sick.
|
|
|
|
**Depression** can cause continuous sadness, low mood, loss of interest in
|
|
life, feelings of hopelessness and difficulty making decisions. Physical
|
|
symptoms include lack of energy, changes in appetite and weight and disturbed
|
|
sleep.
|
|
|
|
**How you can help**
|
|
|
|
People who are used to coping may not want to recognise these symptoms. Often
|
|
it takes a partner, or a friend to point out that they need to seek help from
|
|
a doctor or counsellor, in the form of medication or talking therapy.
