I boldly challenge the misconceptions and stigmas tied to suicide, highlighting the pressing need for empathy in our understanding of this matter. I start by debunking the negative stereotypes associated with suicide, such as the notion that those who choose to end their lives are weak or sinful - a perspective that only adds to the burden the affected families carry. I also confront the damaging language often used, advocating for the adoption of more compassionate phrases.
My discussion doesn't shy away from the hard-hitting questions - I question the beliefs held by some that suicide is an unforgivable sin and that those who "commit suicide" will be punished by God. I argue that these views are not only harmful but also perpetuate the stigma surrounding suicide.
I then move on to stress the need for education to better understand the roots of suicide, often linked to mental illness or profound despair, and how we as a society can offer the necessary support. Join me as I navigate this sensitive topic, aiming to foster a greater understanding and inspire a more compassionate approach towards suicide and its aftermath.
This deck is a labor of love. It's a 44 card oracle deck that's about connecting you to your loved one in spirit. The deck comes with a companion digital guide that gives you an affirmation, a reflection, and an activity for the day.
