What good does it do when these conversations are usually brought up before, during, or after someone’s own struggle with suicidal ideation?
In this episode, Romig will encourage you that you aren’t alone in your struggle, how to find reasons to live, how to manage suicidal ideations, and much more The only way to eliminate the stigma around suicide is to stop deflecting and start talking.
