In this episode of Carrie's Always Talking, Carrie speaks with Lisa Sugarman, a mental health advocate and author, who shares her personal journey as a survivor of suicide loss. Lisa discusses the creation of the Help Hub, a comprehensive online resource for mental health support, and emphasizes the importance of language in discussing suicide. They explore the stigma surrounding mental illness, the role of crisis hotlines, and how to support someone in crisis. Lisa also highlights the mission of the Trevor Project, which provides crisis support for LGBTQ youth. The conversation underscores the need for open dialogue about mental health and the resources available to those in need.
