Suicidal thoughts are scary: which is why most people avoid talking about them! But when we acknowledge suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US, and the second leading cause of death in young adults/teens, it becomes clear that not talking about it is not helping. Demystify why suicidality most often pops up in the first place, and what you can do about it. NOTE: Nina will share her lived experience of one of her own suicidal parts & offer you an adventure challenge for the upcoming week. Get ready to 💌Play with your idea of suicide. 💌Explore how to demystify suicidal parts. 💌Challenge yourself to courageously exist.
CW: We have nuanced conversations on this podcast from the experience of a neurodivergent human. You’re invited to play - and as with all invitations - you are able to decline the invite. The choice is yours 💌
