Overcoming Stigma and Anger: Melissa Rivers

Melissa Rivers is an actress and TV producer who, at just 18 years old, lost her TV producer father Edgar Rosenberg to suicide. Years later, she suffered another sudden loss, when her famous mother Joan Rivers died during a routine medical procedure. Melissa opens up about the stigma, anger and pain surrounding sudden loss, in hopes that it will help remove the taboo surrounding suicide. We'd love your feedback.
