5 Steps that Beat My
Depression
In Australia, men aged 35 to 44 have the highest rates of depression, with one in 12 having experienced depression in just the past 12 months.
These are staggering statistics and what’s more frightening is that for most men who are diagnosed with depression, the typical response is to turn to anti-depressants and other drugs.
I’d like to share with you the story of my battle with depression and how I beat it, without drugs. This is the advice I wish I could have given myself 5 years ago. And I really hope it will help you too. Even if your individual circumstances are vastly different, I’m confident the method and tools that I used to beat depression can be beneficial to anyone.

Peter Balcarek has spent the last 10 years working within the banking and financial services industry. He has always lead a very active lifestyle, training in weightlifting, kickboxing, dragon-boat racing and CrossFit. After a series of not-so-positive life experiences, Peter fell into a dark hole where he emotionally disintegrated and ultimately developed severe depression. This triggered a huge transformation in every area of his life. Peter studied The Journey Method, Dogma Detox Method, NLP and is currently studying Diploma of Counselling. Peter is now passionate about helping other men to become more emotionally in-tune and comfortable in their own skin, without feeling the need to wear the traditional macho male mask.
Raw. Constructive. Humble. Real. Results delivering – guaranteed! I believe loads of mostly active men – young and mature– will resonate with his message and the profound guidance he shares in a simple truthful way will serve as an invitation for action.
Finally someone writing utterly useful content in regards to depression. Straight from the heart, shared from direct experience, challenging the dogmatic labelling of this often mis-diagnosed emotional state. Peter shows a way out and how it’s possible for every man. The only thing needed: to get real and decide that you have had enough of your suffering and bullshit masks.
