Your suicide risk goes up if you have been hospitalized, yeah, and specifically in The Week After, if you've saved people, it can hurt people, and that's where we go back to the quality of life.
Ever wondered what it's like to stare down the darkest moments of life and come out the other side with a mission? In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', Steph and Beth sit down with Dese'Rae Stage, a suicidologist and survivor, to talk about the raw realities of suicide. Dese'Rae isn't just crunching numbers; she's giving a voice to those often reduced to statistics.

Expect a mix of heartfelt honesty, some laughs, and practical advice on how to talk about suicide and support those who struggle with it. Whether you’re looking for ways to help a loved one or seeking to understand more about this critical issue, this episode offers a fresh, compassionate perspective.
