Interview with Kevin Hines - Golden Gate Bridge Survivor & Mental Health Hero | Part 2 🌉💙

Part 2 of our conversation with Kevin Hines gets even deeper. Kevin finishes the story of how he met his wife Margaret (spoiler: he told her he was a volunteer at the psychiatric hospital, not a patient). We talk about tenacity, overcoming bullying and racism, and doing things when people tell you you can't. Then we get into the important stuff: why suicide isn't selfish - it's people in unbearable pain. Kevin introduces us to the term "brain pain" and explains how restrictions actually save lives. He championed the fight to get nets installed under the Golden Gate Bridge, battling the bridge authority for decades and he's even making a movie about it called "The Toll". We also discuss the discrimination people struggling with mental health face, the miracle sea lion named Herbert who saved Kevin's life, and the moment his dad took him back to the bridge for closure."When people feel valued, they do not take their lives." - Kevin HinesThis episode will change how you think about suicide prevention. 💙CONNECT WITH US: 📱Website: www.2Girls1Grief.com Email: [email protected] Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and X - link in bio 💕RESOURCES: 🆘If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide or you just need someone to talk to, call 988 or text HELP to 741741 now.
