THIS EPISODE IS 'BEST OF HABITS YOU LOVE'

!!TRIGGER WARNING!!

Today's episode is, to date, our most popular along with the part two that follows this same story.

It was aired two years ago, but still holds true today.

MENTAL ILLNESS DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE.

I felt compelled to share it again for our new listeners and hopefully to inspire you that you are not alone.

Everyone knows someone that has unfortunately decided to end their life. Everyone.

And, no matter how perfect someone's life looks on the outside, things aren't always what they seem.

In this episode, I sit down with my sister and discuss the events leading up to the decline of our parent's mental health, as well as the night she witnessed my mother taking her own life.

We discuss depression, anxiety, mental hospitals, mental illness, and suicide.

Listener discretion is strongly advised.
