The local Samaritans say they're concerned that many men will be suffering from stress and depression this Christmas - but won't seek help.
With many men finding it increasingly difficult to provide for their families, the charity says they can end up feeling useless.
Christmas is a particularly tough time for anyone suffering mental distress - and Exeter branch director Helen Crossfield is urging men in that position to just pick up the phone.
The Exeter Samaritans are on 01392 411 711 and the branch will be staffed throughout Christmas and New Year.
