Your Therapist Needs Therapy 155 - When Should We Speak Ill of the Dead?

CW: SuicideThis week Jeremy sits in the complex emotions surrounding the recent death of Ryan Stollar. Jeremy looks at how we try to hold the tragedy of a loss simultaneous with anger at harm perpetrated, and how that gets even more complex with holding space for mental health and complex trauma. Jeremy talks about accountability mattering even for the dead as a way to protect the living, and highlights that mental health issues are not an excuse for doing harm. Crisis Warmlines (Updated by Inclusive Therapists)  Don't Call The Police  Trevor Project for LGBTQ+ YouthCrisis Warmlines (Updated by Recovering from Religion)To support survivors of religious trauma you can donate at this link!As always, Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube.
