Fathers Fire

94 - A Dad's Experience with Suicide Part 2


Listen Later

The outpouring of comments, support, and questions for last week's episode of "A Dad's Experience with Suicide" has motivated me to create a follow-up episode.  I thought I'd share some practical tools that we've put in place to protect not only our loved one struggling with suicidal thoughts but also ensure the safety and well being of other members of the family.

A few highlights:

  • Purchasing safes to house medications and knives
  • Working out every day with my wife
  • Ladies retreat for my wife
  • Early morning devotionals - personal and with a trusted friend
  • Working with other men fixing stuff or driving like a mad man with my buddy
  • Recognize everyone deals with problems differently and give them grace
  • Sharing of the poem, Roar! that I wrote
  • Gratitude Journal
  • If you have any comments or have personal experiences you would like to share please reach out to me at [email protected] or direct message me on TikTok, Instagram or Facebook.
