The conversation in this episode dives into suicide prevention, stigma, and the changes needed to get to Zero-Suicide. Synopsis: The Usual Place host Natasha Ann Zachariah hunts for new perspectives on issues that matter to young people. In Singapore, suicide remains the leading cause of death for young people aged between 10 and 29.  A 160-page white paper report called Project Hayat (meaning ‘life' in Malay) was launched in conjunction with World Suicide Prevention Day on Sept 10 by advocacy group SG Mental Health Matters. Project Hayat outlines a national suicide prevention strategy for Singapore, and laid out its own research findings and 23 recommendations for addressing the gaps in suicide prevention here.In this episode, host Natasha Ann Zachariah finds out how we could talk more openly about suicide matters among young people, and what more can be done to address the gaps in support. Her guests on the show are the project's co-lead Dr Rayner Tan, 35, who is from the National University of Singapore's Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health.  Shantini Sathiyanesan, 38, calls herself a “wounded healer” for her journey through suicidality, and also for having experienced the grief of losing someone to suicide. Highlights (click/tap above): 2:55 Has Project Hayat's data studies shown unique barriers specific to minorities in society?  5:30 How to tell if someone has suicidal thoughts; passive and active suicide ideation; what is psychache (psychological pain)?  9:25 Shantini shares her own lived experience of suicidality - having suicidal thoughts, ideation, and losing someone to suicide -  despite living a highly functioning life 13:58 What is the suicide question and why is it important to ask it? Paradox of saying “I don't want to be a burden” 20:10 Importance of Project Hayat's suicide prevention strategies; what can we do better when someone comes to us for help? 31:23 Dr Rayner Tan on Project Hayat's bold ‘zero suicides' target for Singapore; on SOS (Samaritans of Singapore) helplines and the experience it offers The Project Hayat White Paper is available here: www.sgmentalhealthmatters.com MENTAL WELL-BEING Institute of Mental Health's Mental Health Helpline: 6389-2222 (24 hours) Samaritans of Singapore: 1-767 (24 hours) / 9151-1767 (24 hours CareText via WhatsApp) Singapore Association for Mental Health: 1800-283-7019 Silver Ribbon Singapore: 6386-1928 Tinkle Friend: 1800-274-4788  Chat, Centre of Excellence for Youth Mental Health: 6493-6500/1  Women's Helpline (Aware): 1800-777-5555 (weekdays, 10am to 6pm) COUNSELLING Touchline (Counselling): 1800-377-2252 Touch Care Line (for caregivers): 6804-6555 Care Corner Counselling Centre: 6353-1180 Counselling and Care Centre: 6536-6366 We Care Community Services: 3165-8017 ONLINE RESOURCES https://moht.com.sg/mindline-sg/ https://fycs.org/ec2-sg/ https://www.tinklefriend.sg/ https://www.imh.com.sg/chat/Pages/default.aspx https://carey.carecorner.org.sg/ (for those aged 13 to 25) https://www.limitless.sg/talk (for those aged 12 to 25) Follow Natasha on her IG account and DM her your thoughts on this topic: https://str.sg/8WavHost: Natasha Zachariah (natashaz@sph.com.sg)Read Natasha's articles: https://str.sg/iSXmFollow Natasha on LinkedIn: https://str.sg/v6DN Filmed by: Studio+65 Edited by ST Podcast producers: Eden Soh & Teo Tong Kai Executive producers: Ernest Luis & Lynda Hong Follow The Usual Place Podcast here and get notified for new episode drops: Channel: https://str.sg/5nfm Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/9ijX Spotify: https://str.sg/cd2P YouTube: https://str.sg/wEr7u Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg --- Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7 ST Podcast website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts ST Podcasts YouTube: https://str.sg/4Vwsa --- Get The Straits Times' app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX #tup #tuptr #healthcheck See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

*Trigger Warning: This episode of the podcast touches on topics involving suicide and bullying* In Singapore, the social stigma surrounding HIV and AIDS remains a significant challenge, lagging behind the rapid advancements in medical science. This persistent stigma, rooted in fear and prejudice, hampers efforts towards a more inclusive and informed society. In the second episode of the fourth season of IPS' On Diversity Podcast, our host Liang Kaixin, Associate Director at the Institute of Policy Studies and a former journalist, delves into this critical issue with Dr Rayner Tan, Assistant Professor at the Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health, and Terry Lim, Associate Director of Outreach Education and Testing at Action for AIDS. Their discussion revolves around the enduring misconceptions about HIV, the vital role of campaigns and sexual health education in dispelling these myths, and strategies like HIV self-testing kits to encourage early detection, especially for high-risk groups.

Journey into the darkest corners of the internet, where a deadly connection was forged in 140 characters or less. Synopsis (headphones recommended): A special edition 6-part series by The Straits Times in Singapore, exploring recent real crimes that gripped, horrified and laid bare the issues that afflicted societies in Asia. This is the sixth and final episode of True Crimes Of Asia, a special edition podcast series that started on April 25, 2023. Warning: This podcast is an audio documentary of a real crime case which may be troubling and upsetting to certain listeners. This episode specifically covers themes of suicide and details of death and traumatic sexual acts. Listener discretion is advised, and helplines for mental well-being are provided further below. Nine heads and 240 bones were found in a tiny apartment just outside Tokyo on Halloween in 2017, in one of Japan's most shocking crimes in history. Takahiro Shiraishi baited suicidal victims on Twitter who wanted to die but lacked the courage to end their own lives. He posed as an expert in hanging but his real motives were sex and money. Shiraishi has been sentenced to death – by hanging – and is now in a maximum-security prison. The case had sparked conversations about social media scrutiny and suicide in Japan.

We shed light on the enduring impact of colorism, where lighter skin tones are favored, leading to feelings of inadequacy and marginalization among individuals with darker complexions. We examine the detrimental effects of Eurocentric beauty standards that perpetuate narrow ideals and often leave individuals questioning their own beauty and worth.Moreover, we address the insidious nature of internalized racism, exploring how systemic discrimination and limited opportunities contribute to self-hate and hinder collective progress. By highlighting personal stories, expert insights, and community voices, we seek to dismantle these damaging patterns and cultivate self-love and acceptance.Join us on this transformative journey as we challenge societal norms, confront the negative impact of self-hatred, and empower ourselves and our community.

India's first national mental health rehabilitation helpline was launched recently*, to provide mental health support in 13 languages. The Social Justice and Empowerment Ministry launched it to enable better access to mental health resources. The “Kiran” mental health rehabilitation helpline number 1800-599-0019, will give callers “support for early screening, first-aid, psychological support, distress management, mental well-being, preventing deviant behaviours, and psychological crisis management, etc.”  For this episode of The Suno India Show, ahead of the National Suicide Prevention Day, we set out to find answers for some questions such as “Will I reach out for mental health support whenever I just feel like talking to someone or when I'm in the middle of a crisis?” And how does this national helpline fit in the larger discussion around access to mental health resources. You will hear from Gaurav Kumar Bansal, a mental health advocate who has filed multiple PILs in SC to implement mental health policies, Aparna Joshi from iCALL, which is a national level free psychosocial counseling service. You will also hear from Raashi Thakran who turned a deeply personal tragedy into a campaign demanding for a national mental health helpline and Jasmine Kalha, the program manager and research fellow at the Center for Mental Health Law and Policy, Indian Law Society also weighs in on the helpline.

PopVultures run through why the industry can be so toxic and discuss the case of Sulli and the incessant hate she faced from netizens, the suspicious circumstances surrounding Jang Ja-yeon's death and the abuse of power and cover-ups in the Burning Sun scandal involving Seungri and former YG Entertainment head honcho Yang Hyun-suk.    Finally, the #PopVultures give their take on what fans of K-pop can do moving forward and how to reconcile the ugliness of K-pop with the talent and joy it provides.
