They're trying to shake the stigma.
A new initiative in Laois and Tipperary is giving farmers in rural areas the chance to avail of a new support service.
Macra na Feirme is teaming up with Healthy Ireland to create ''Make the Moove'' - which aims to get farmers thinking about their mental health, as well as financial management.
Borris-in-Ossory's Jonathan Dwyer says the increasing strain on farmers means a current lack of resources needs to be addressed.
Mr. Dwyer, who founded the project, believes a stigma still remains among the older generation in rural Ireland, in particular:
