But the pain is real and it's not just in our brain, it is also it affects our entire body. But if someone can provide us hope, someone can let us know that they care. Someone is understanding and someone is not judgmental.
Imagine feeling like you can't talk about your deepest pain because of the shame attached to it. That's the harsh reality for many dealing with suicidal thoughts. In this episode of the W.A.R. podcast, Fonda Bryant tackles the heavy topic of suicide stigma head-on. She argues that suicide should be declared a 'Health Crisis' to shift societal views and make it easier for people to seek help without fear of judgment.
Fonda shares her own experiences and those of others, emphasizing that hiding suicidal thoughts only deepens the suffering. By opening up the conversation, we can create a supportive environment where people feel safe to ask for help. This episode also explores the need for mental health care reform and better education on recognizing warning signs. Fonda touches on how celebrity suicides can influence public perception and why it's crucial to approach these tragedies with sensitivity and understanding.
