Episode Overview: Self-Harm vs Suicide: The Difference No One Talks About

In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Navigating Life with Neurodiversity, Matt explores the often misunderstood distinction between self-harm and suicide—two experiences that are frequently lumped together but stem from profoundly different places. Drawing from lived experience, Matt shares the emotional realities behind both, shedding light on the role of dissociation, trauma, and neurodivergence in shaping these complex behaviours. With honesty and vulnerability, this episode challenges stigma, opens space for compassion, and gives language to the silent struggles so many face but few truly understand.
