Dr. Krista Fisher is a Young Men’s Health Research Fellow with the newly founded Movember Institute of Men’s Health. We initially discussed Krista’s journey to men’s mental health research, which came after a pivot from doing cancer research. She was motivated to work in men’s mental health after attending a panel by some of the world’s experts in the area, Drs. Zac Seidler and Simon Rice. Since embarking on her doctoral work, Krista has taken a deep dive into the experiences of men’s anxiety. She mentioned becoming interested in this after noticing that the work on men’s depression had grown substantially, but fairly little was understood about men’s anxiety. Her work has resulted in the development of the Resisting, Reckoning, Responding model of men’s anxiety. We also chatted about how her work on the profiles of men experiencing anxiety who interacted with emergency services has implications for how we intervene with men in acute distress.
