*trigger warning* - suicide, self-harm, death

Guys, this episode was hard. And it's a day (and a week) late and a dollar short, but in it, Cheyenne explains why she had to take a break from recording, what she's been struggling with, and talks about the ugly side of mental health.

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and if you are having a hard time or need support, you can always use the lifeline or support line here: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/ or call 1-800-273-8255. You matter, and you are loved. Feelings are not forever, so please support yourself in whatever way you can by asking for help, if you need it.
