Afternoon!
I was wanting to put a list of links for Fathers (should any be reading), that I thought were interesting. the first one tells us that 10% of men suffer from PND, I wonder how realistic this really is? I'm sure that many cases of male PND is not reported as much as female cases as women are more likely to have most contact with a health visitor and doctor. I wonder if they do the Edinburgh PND scale for men as well? I would certainly like to find the answer to this and on my next visit with the doctor, I will ask and report back.

I don't want to post too many just now for rear of information overload. One thing I did notice was that there wasn't a lot of information available for Fathers. I think that this is something that should be highlighted and changed. Although it affects men and women in different ways, we all have valid experiences which should be treated accordingly.
I also found the following link which answers a question about people in remote areas. This can be used by men and women and men.
