Is there a way to tackle mental health issues in the golf community?
Matt Cook of Pull Hook Golf podcast dropped some hard truths in our latest episode - '2024 RBC Canadian Open & Much More'. He candidly discusses the tragic loss of Grayson Murray, a well-known figure in the golf community who succumbed to his battle with depression. This brings up a critical conversation about mental health, especially among men who, as Matt points out, often suffer in silence due to societal pressures.
In the episode, Matt also shares his personal experiences with alternative therapy methods and their potential benefits. He particularly mentions his experience with toad venom, a traditional shamanic practice he encountered during a trip to Tulum. Backed by research from reputable institutions like John Hopkins, these alternative therapies might just be the solace someone needs.
By sharing this, we hope to shed light on the importance of seeking help and breaking the stigma around mental health. Remember, it's never unmanly to ask for help, and sometimes, the most unconventional methods could be your key to recovery.
Tune in to this episode of Pull Hook Golf for an honest, raw conversation about mental health in the golf community.
