OUR JOURNEY
Tragically, three out of four suicides in Australia are men. It’s a national crisis and it’s time we stopped looking away.
STAYD is a movement to support men’s mental health and suicide prevention programs in Australia. This is more than just selling awesome merch; it’s about breaking the stigma around men’s mental health and encouraging men, that being vulnerable and having emotions is not weakness. It’s about being human.
STAYD exists to shift the cultural norms around how men express emotion. If you’re struggling — talk to someone. Anyone. A mate. A stranger. A family member. A helpline. Every “I’m fine” can carry a silent battle. In 2025, masculinity means having the strength to feel and the courage to speak. You’re not alone. You don’t have to carry it all or suffer in silence. Your feelings aren’t a flaw — they’re proof your humanity.
The pain of losing someone you love is seismic. Grief doesn’t just break your heart — it reshapes you. The ones we miss most are the ones we thought we’d never have to live without. And while we learn to live differently, it’s a pain no one should have to endure. We must end this epidemic. This is my purpose. This is my legacy. This is for every man who thought he couldn’t keep going.
By purchasing STAYD merch, you’re doing more than wearing a message — you’re funding change. I’ve committed to donating 50% of all profits to charities supporting men’s mental health and suicide prevention programs across Australia. Your support means everything. It keeps STAYD alive. It keeps hope alive. It keeps a child from losing their father. A partner from losing their best friend. A parent from losing their child.
You STAYD. You fought. You rose. You matter. We see you. We stand with you. We love you.
If you need to reach out, drop us a line. We’re here — to listen, to support, to walk beside you.
Love Angie D
