Talking About Suicide Ideation *trigger warning* | Ep 204

Reality Check Podcast
Written By Zachary Phillips
 

A follower asked me to share my experiences of suicide ideation. This podcast is my response, hopefully it helps them, and you to heal, grow, recover and connect.

Mental illness is both invisible and insidious. Perhaps the reason we lose so so many to suicide and addiction; those suffering will do anything to end it, other than reach out that is.

So please, check on your friends. Even the strong ones. Especially if you notice a change, and even if you don’t.

Trust your intuition and risk an awkward conversation. Because doing so may avoid having to endure the worst phone call of your life.
