TW: Suicide and Suicidal Ideation
May is mental health awareness month and the topic of this weeks episode is probably one of the most important ones we could bring to you.
It seems the more I dive into this subject the more I see that so many people have been touched by suicide or suicidal ideation.
This week we have the honor of talking to Aly McNair @alymcnair founder of The Glow Stick Project as she shares her personal experience with suicide and how it’s led her towards using her voice to spread awareness and encourage change.
In this episode we discuss the importance of communication and breaking the disgrace behind sharing feelings or intrusive thoughts. As well as how we can spot struggles and be the help for ourselves and our loved ones.
The message of hope and love that Aly is spreading is one we wish all ears could hear.
Together we want to let you know that if you are not feeling well, or if you are struggling with your mental health, we encourage you to please reach out to a trusted friend, family member or The National Suicide Prevention Hot Line at 1-800-273-8255
The world is a better place because you are here. You are loved!
