Self-Harm, Suicide and Not Wanting To Exist. WARNING: HEAVY EPISODE AND HEAVY TOPIC!

WARNING: HEAVY EPISODE AND HEAVY TOPIC!Yes, warnings everywhere. This episode is most definitely a heavy one. We talk about self-harm, suicide and the difference between that and simply not wanting to exist. Many of us have experienced this deeply painful feeling of worthlessness, helplessness and simply not wanting to exist. For me, this has manifested in my past as reckless behavior since I didn't value myself as much as I do now. So, essentially I share my stories of suicide attempts and how I've re-framed my approach to suicide as momentarily versus permanent. I'm only able to speak from my experience as I'm absolutely not a doctor and am not providing medical advice on how you should approach suicidal tendencies.If you're suffering please seek professional help or if you're in crisis mode please call 1-800-273-8255.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/happychemicals/message Get full access to DOPEamine at dopeamine.substack.com/subscribe
