S1: What Do You Say About Suicide? Part 2(Stories of Suicide & Survival)

In the last episode, we heard from people who had ideated and/or survived their own suicide attempts, as well as people who had survived a loved one’s suicide. They told us about all the unhelpful and hurtful things that people had said or done.  But there ARE things that people can do and say that ARE helpful, and in this episode, we dive into it.  If you're looking for resources on suicide, here are some good places to start:  Be The One To - https://www.bethe1to.com National Alliance on Mental Illness - https://www.nami.org National Suicide Prevention Lifeline - https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention - afsp.org/about-suicide/suicide-statistics   Center for Disease Control - https://www.cdc.gov/vitalsigns/suicide _ Terrible, Thanks for Asking tells the real stories of real people who have lived through the terrible things in life.
