About

Lad Check is a men's mental health brand focused on fighting depression and anxiety through a radical new approach…friendship. We're not therapists, we're not trying to solve anyone's problems; we're just lads checking in. Sometimes two words are enough to change a life.

Mission


A recent survey revealed that 40% of men would not even consider therapy until they have suicidal thoughts. Is this a new trend in 2024, or something more inherent?

We believe that men have always been proud and stubborn, often keeping their struggles to themselves, regardless of circumstance. Men want to be seen as strong and capable. So, instead of trying to change human nature, why not find a solution that works with it? Friends should be the first and last line of defense in the mental health battle, and our goal is to spread that message.

We all manage our problems differently, but everyone needs a lad.

Feeling depressed and alone?
Lost and behind in life?
Can’t seem to get a relationship or make one work?
Career and personal issues taking their toll?

We get it, bro. Do we want to talk about it? ...Not really. But we do it anyway—because it's for the good of the lads. Sometimes just hearing a conversation on a relevant topic can be enough.
