Jeff Romig: Confronting Suicidal Thoughts and Redefining Mental Health Conversations
I wanted to have a title that was authentic and speaks to the seriousness of suicide and of navigating suicidal ideation.
Suicide ideation is a tough topic, but Jeff Romig doesn't shy away from it. In this episode of the Positive Sobriety Podcast, Jeff opens up about his personal battles, drawing from his book 'Don't F*#king Kill Yourself'. His raw honesty provides a gripping look into the dark moments of his life and how he found the strength to seek help. Nate Larkin and David Hampton, the hosts, guide this heartfelt discussion with sensitivity and insight.
They explore how the church can be a pillar in the journey to sobriety and recovery, and tackle the weighty professional and personal responsibilities tied to mental health. Jeff's perspective is both sobering and hopeful, offering a beacon for those wrestling with similar thoughts or supporting loved ones through their struggles. This episode isn't just about understanding suicidal ideation; it's about changing how we talk about mental health altogether.
It's a must-listen for anyone seeking deeper empathy and practical ways to support mental wellness.
