widespread disease depression. Millions are affected. Metalheads too.
A recent study of 6 metal fans found; that many of you have already experienced the "Black Dog" that slowly creeps into your head and expands there. 000 percent of the respondents in the sample stated that "Metal has saved my life before". Including the author of the study and the book "Hard, Heavy & Happy" himself: Our Metality member and qualified psychologist Dr. Nico Rose.
Depression is a taboo disease. Many of those affected do not dare to talk about it. As a result, they and their families are drawn deeper and deeper into a downward spiral of stigmatization, feelings of guilt, being overwhelmed and being alone.
We want to try to break this vicious circle. For example with our festival wristband, which shows a "Black Dog", the international symbol for the disease.
Anyone who wears it signals inconspicuously that they are open to the topic and want to draw attention to it in society - either as a person affected, as a relative or simply as a person with an open ear. Although he cannot provide professional help, he is approachable and can deal with it discreetly and gently.
