Men Matter.
A blog By Lucas Erskine.
My Story.
Kia Ora,
​
My name is Lucas Erskine. I am a 19 year old boy originally from Queenstown, New Zealand. I now live in Dunedin, New Zealand and work full time. I am currently working towards my concrete construction apprenticeship. I have a stable income, I live with my girlfriend, I am very active in the gym and I play rugby every weekend.
​
Growing up I was always one to worry. Since as long as I can remember I worried, I feared the smallest things that didn't matter. As I aged through my teens this developed into a severe case of Anxiety and Depression.
​
I am proud to say that I have overcome 100% of my darkest days. Men Matter is a community, Mental Health is something I take very seriously. Experiencing these emotions is not easy and is something that needs to be normalised. The stigma around Mens Mental Health needs to go. I created this movement to share insights into my struggles and hopefully inspire other men to do the same.
