17. Eliminating Suicidal Thoughts

Episode 17 is very important.  After relationships end sometimes it can result in a person experiencing suicidal ideation.  Individuals have thoughts of not wanting to live anymore.  In this episode I educate my listeners about suicide and discuss how it comes along with depression often.  People who struggle with suicidal thoughts should know that they actually want to live but are dealing with dysfunctional thought patterns and are fighting against hopeless and negative thoughts.  I encourage those who deal with depression with SI not to identify with it and to separate self from the mental illness.   Allow this episode to inform you not only for self but for others.  9.3 million adults reported to having suicidal thoughts in 2015 www.cdc.gov.  Suicide Lifeline 1-800-273-8255.
