About this episode
Please be advised that this episode will focus on mental health and will discuss topics including depression and suicide.
The fourth and final episode of the Farm Safety Survivor Series brought to you by Agriland, in association with AXA and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM), focuses on mental health.
In today’s podcast, Agriland news journalist Rubina Freiberg speaks to Andy Nolan, who comes from a beef farming background in Co. Laois, and Samaritans Ireland executive director, Sarah O’Toole.
In his mid-twenties, Nolan’s mental health issues came to a head. About five years later he decided he wanted to get help, and managed to get in control of his mental health. “When I did eventually get help, it was a huge, huge relief”.
Help is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to anyone who is in distress, lonely, struggling to cope or feeling suicidal by calling Samaritans for free day or night on 116 123 or alternatively via email on [email protected]
