In New Zealand, many young boys and men who express feelings can be made fun of. Sometimes we can be told: 

​

• Boys don't cry!

• Harden up!

• Don't be such a baby!

• You're gay!

• Don't cry like a girl!

​

This is rubbish. We know what we feel and what happened to us. It can take time to trust ourselves and other people, but you can find a way forward with some effort. To start your journey, tap on these options. What we offer, Self care, Videos / Free helplines in NZ
