Addie and I talk about the very real topic of suicide.  It is a very vulnerable and emotional discussion on the effects of depression, PTSD, suicide and mental health.  Please be aware, there is some explicit content at the end when I read a paper my husband wrote regarding his PTSD.  

Addie and I ask each other questions on different topics!  Get ready for some fun, candid, serious, and silly answers!!
