“Hopefully, it will encourage people to talk and be much more open about how they are feeling and fingers crossed it will save lives.” “Football unites people,” he added. “Turn to the person next to you in the ground, wherever that may be, and just ask, ‘are you okay today?’ Just talk.”
Gary MutimerLaunching on Blue Monday – the third Monday of January dubbed ‘the most depressing day of the year’ – Newcastle United Foundation and Sunderland Foundation of Light are coming together to spread mental health awareness across the North East. Gary added: “I openly talk about what happened to me and try to help to raise awareness of mental health matters. Believe me, you are not alone and talking helps. “Even by just recognising you have an issue with your mental health, you are already on the road to smashing it. “When you are trapped in the dark tunnel without a light, you are not alone. In fact, you are surrounded by people who are human just like you and who are willing to help you. “You are not alone, I am not alone and we are all in this together. Share your thoughts and easy your load. You have got this!”
