Suicide is like a minority, a discriminated cause of death. We've learned that it's all us priviledged people who need to stand up for black lives and fight racism, and it's the same with mental health. To fight for your life when you are struggling, instead of getting the support from a helping hand is different. Just like the one's who's never been discriminated must take action, the ones who've never suffered from mental illness must take action. It's not ok to say it doesn't concern me because I don't suffer from it. We see an increase in suicides in young girls age 15-24 and in today's episode I talk a lot about puberty and how important it is that we step in as parents with greater support these sensitive year going from being a child into being a young adult.
