Podcasts about suicidal ideation

In one single Sunday, Norense encountered four different people — at church, after service, and late that night — all wrestling with the same thing: negative thoughts, anxiety, suicidal ideation, betrayal, and the feeling that the enemy had the upper hand.And then he hit record.This is an emergency episode. Raw, unscripted, and delivered straight from a living room in Brooklyn — because the mind bully is real, it's active, and it doesn't take Sundays off.Norense opens with a full prayer, walks through his own week — a broken camera, a gaslighting friendship, a heavy heart walking into church — and then unpacks the spiritual mechanics behind every intrusive thought, every wave of apathy, and every whisper that says it's over. He doesn't just offer comfort. He gives you the tools to fight back.In this episode:Why the enemy doesn't come with new tricks — just the same ones: self-doubt, shame, fear, and apathyThe honest duality of faith — how you can feel audacious and anxious, joyful and broken, at the exact same timeWhat gaslighting looks like in a friendship — and how to forgive without lowering your standard for who gets access to youWhy suicidal ideation is a lie from the pit of hell — and what God's Word actually says about who you areThe spiritual mechanics of resisting the devil — why he doesn't have to flee if you're not actively submitting to the WordWhy the Bible reads you — and how to let scripture speak before you run to commentary or ChatGPTA live account of being used by God to speak into a stranger's life — even while carrying a heavy heart of your ownKey Truth: "Healing happens when we walk into the room — because Mr. Healing himself lives on the inside of us."Key Verse: James 4:7 — Submit to God, resist the devil, and he will flee from you.⚠️ A note: If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please reach out to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by calling or texting 988.If this episode hit you:Rate and review the Mind Bully Podcast — it gets this message into more homes and hearts that need it most.

Aside from parents, grandparents hold some of the highest potential for influence in a child’s life. But in today's rapidly changing culture, navigating family dynamics, physical distance, and the delicate line between supporting and overstepping can feel like a minefield. In this episode, Leslie Nunnery sits down with Lori Wildenberg to explore the beautifully vital role of intentional Christian grandparenting. Together, they unpack the unique challenges modern grandparents face, the immense power of organic faith conversations, and the essential roles that humility and respect play when partnering with your adult children. Whether you are a grandparent looking to leave a lasting spiritual legacy, or a parent wanting to foster a healthier relationship between your children and their grandparents, this conversation offers deeply practical wisdom and biblical encouragement for the whole family.   IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:  A Powerful Position of Influence: Outside of a child’s parents, grandparents have the highest potential for meaningful, long-term influence in a grandchild’s life. Partnership Requires Respect: Effective grandparenting relies on a foundation of strong, healthy relationships with your adult children and their spouses. Cultivating this bond requires humility, respect for their household rules, and a willingness to avoid overstepping boundaries. The Power of Asking: One of the most supportive steps a grandparent can take is to directly ask their adult children, “How can I best support and help you right now?” rather than assuming what they need. Organic Faith Conversations: Nurturing a spiritual legacy doesn’t require formal lectures. Instead, faith is most effectively caught through everyday, organic conversations and observing a grandparent’s authentic walk with God. Navigating Modern Challenges: Modern grandparents must be intentional to overcome unique contemporary hurdles, such as physical distance, busy family schedules, and rapidly shifting cultural dynamics. Prayer as a Primary Tool: When physical distance or family dynamics limit quality time, consistent, intentional prayer remains a grandparent’s most powerful tool for protecting and supporting the next generation.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: Learn more about Lori Wildenberg and her ministry Grandparents Make Grand Partners Messy Hope Messy Journey: How Grace and Truth Offer the Prodigal a Way Home The Messy Life of Parenting TTD365 Membership– Were you not able to join us at TTD this year?

In this debrief episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon breaks down the major themes in Parker's story, including spiritual abuse, coercive control, suicide threats, custody abuse, and the way an abuser can use faith, community, and children as tools of control. Brandon explores how Parker's upbringing inside a high-control religious environment shaped her sense of obligation, how her abuser used those beliefs against her, and how fear, guilt, and responsibility kept her trapped longer. The episode also looks at suicide threats as coercive control, post-separation abuse through custody, and the long process of reclaiming your voice after being taught to stay quiet. *** CONTENT WARNING - We discuss Suicidal Ideation in this episode. *** Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.me Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this rerelease episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Parker shares her story of growing up inside a high-control religious environment, surviving sexual assault as a teenager, and later marrying a manipulative and controlling abuser who used her faith, fear, guilt, and responsibility for the family against her. It's a story of spiritual abuse, coercive control, entitlement, escalations, suicide threats, post separation abuse, child hood sexual abuse, court, protection orders, parental alienation, putdowns, gender roles, patriarchal systems, distortion campaigns, and custody.  *** CONTENT WARNING - We discuss Child Hood Sexual Assault, Sexual Abuse, & Suicidal Ideation in this episode. *** Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.me Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today's episode is from the archives that are available at www.BearClanllc.com.  It's a re-cast of Episode 18, addressing how counselors can stabilize kids after an incident involving suicidal ideation or gestures. The role of a counselor is fundamentally different than the role of a therapist in these situations.  The counselor's focus is on helping the client see the suicidal ideation or gesture as a symptom and then helping the client cope with that symptom.  It's not about understanding where the symptom comes from – leave that for the individual sessions with a therapist.  Next episode I'll be back with the beginning of a new episode arc in the group-level interventions learning pathway.  The focus will be on how to incorporate treatment interventions into every part of the residential shift.     In the meantime, I hope this episode helps you, and your program, to effectively intervene and support your most overwhelmed clients when they are in crisis. 

This is an archival episode that re-releases Episode 17 on Suicidal Ideation. Episodes 17 and 18 explore how to counsel residents who experience suicidal ideation. Residential children and youth are part of a high-risk group for having thoughts of suicide and, often times, it will fall upon residential staff to provide effective counseling, typically late at night. Learn how to effectively process suicidal ideation with your clients and what sort of follow-up interventions can help keep your clients safe.

Entering the relationship at a young age, Wednesday was slowly conditioned through attention, affection, and psychological grooming that evolved into isolation, coercive control, and escalating emotional and psychological abuse. What began as seeming care and guidance gradually transformed into domination, fear, and dependency, leaving Wednesday trapped in a cycle of trauma bonding and self-doubt.It's a story of grooming, power imbalances, coercive control, love bombing, trauma bonding, emotional abuse, manipulation, gaslighting, isolation, sexual assault, sexual abuse, sexual coercion, suicidal ideation, intermittent reinforcement, fear-based compliance, shame, guilt, control, intimidation, dependency, financial manipulation, identity erosion, boundary violations, psychological conditioning, cognitive dissonance, self-blame, awakening, rebuilding self-trust, healing, and ultimately, reclaiming autonomy and self-worth. CONTENT WARNING - THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES SEXUAL ASSAULT, SEXUAL ABUSE, SEXUAL COERCION, & SUICIDAL IDEATION.Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.meClick on the title of our blog to read our complete guide to weaponized incompetence.Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I wanted to close off this year with some positivity and maybe a kick in the butt. 2025 has been the hardest, most challenging, beautiful, insightful and needed year of my life. A lot of us are experiencing burnout, growth periods, feeling lost, isolated, unworthy in life, mental health struggles, grieving loved ones/past versions of ourselves, personal development, new chapters that feel scary and uncertain; and just - life. It's hard, it's all hard. For me, I fell into myself and imploded. But this time was different. Instead of doing it on my own, to crawl back out - I did it with aid and support. So if you're feeling lost or truly unwell - here are my 6 steps to getting your life BACK. I truly believe in these steps and in combination, they really saved my life. The last 3 months have been nothing short of amazing, difficult, gut wrenching, and life changing. I know I still have a lot of hard work to do. I think that's the whole point. Knowing the work is never really 'done'. But feeling the progress, seeing the results, and sitting back and saying, "Look at how far I've come". That's true growth. It's not boastful - it's truthful, it's honest, hard work. It's humble.***If you're experiencing thoughts of self harm please seek immediate help.*** And if you're listening in hopes of aiding a loved one who is struggling - you've come to the right place. Just know this is just a piece of it - professional help is the ultimate solution. We can't do this work on our own. Support your loved ones, hold them close.  Instagram: @manicandmedicatedpodcast_Send Me A Text :)Support the show

This is the Final Cut Premiere of an extraordinary conversation with Dr. Amelia Kelley, one of today's most compelling voices in trauma recovery, emotional resilience, and the science of healing. Originally streamed live, this version brings you the fully mastered audio of an hour-long dialogue that explores what it means to move through crisis, reclaim your sense of self, and find connection again. Dr. Kelley is a licensed therapist, author, researcher, and teacher. Her work examines how the nervous system responds to overwhelming emotional events, how the body communicates what the mind suppresses, and how recovery unfolds in real time through compassion, safety, and presence. In this conversation, we explore: • The deeper truths behind emotional pain and the body's signals • How lived experience shapes a person's capacity for resilience • The role of relationships in reconnecting with a sense of identity • The neuroscience behind healing and stability • Why her book has become a lifeline for so many Her insights are powerful, compassionate, and grounded in both science and lived reality.

Inattentive ADHD often goes unnoticed. It's an easier type of ADHD to miss because it's more internal and less outwardly visible than its hyperactive, impulsive counterpart. But left unaddressed, inattentive ADHD can be just as disruptive.Boys with the inattentive type are especially overlooked — they don't match the stereotype of what an “ADHD boy” is supposed to look like.So when Brandon Saiz wrote to us about his experience getting diagnosed with ADHD later in life, we knew we had to talk to him. After meeting with Brandon, it was clear his story needed to be shared.Content warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide.

If you've ever felt alone in your struggle, if you're carrying shame about needing help, or if you know a veteran who's suffering in silence, this episode is for you.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/mark-rossIn this powerful episode, MommaFoxFire sits down with Mark Ross, a veteran and advocate who's walked through the darkest corners of mental health and lived to tell the story. Mark opens up about his experiences with PTSD, depression & suicidal ideation, giving listeners a raw look at what it's really like to fight your own mind every day. This conversation is real talk about pain, survival, and what it means to ask for help when everything feels impossible.Mark talks about how his mental health struggles started after his military service, but he's quick to point out that trauma isn't limited to combat. PTSD can come from many places, and everyone's story looks different. What matters is recognizing the signs and getting support before things spiral. He describes the emotional numbness, the anxiety & the deep depression that followed him long after he came home. For years, he felt stuck, angry, detached & ashamed to admit how bad things really were.The turning point came when he realized that silence was killing him faster than any diagnosis ever could. He started therapy, reluctantly at first, but found that being honest with a counselor gave him space to start healing. He learned that therapy is less about “fixing” you and more about giving you tools to survive, connect & slowly rebuild your life.Mark and MommaFoxFire talk about the stigma that keeps so many people, especially men and veterans, from reaching out for help. They unpack how phrases like “man up” or “be strong” can trap people in cycles of shame and isolation. Mark admits that his lowest points included thoughts of suicide & that what ultimately saved him was connection... friends who noticed, a therapist who listened & his own decision to stop hiding behind a mask.He now uses his story to help others see that recovery isn't linear, and it doesn't require perfection. There are good days and bad ones, but progress counts in small moments... like getting out of bed, making a call or letting someone in on what you're feeling.Throughout the conversation, Mark's honesty hits hard but also offers hope. He reminds listeners that you don't have to wait until you're at rock bottom to reach out. Whether it's therapy, medication, support groups or just talking with someone you trust, there are ways forward.The episode closes with both Mark and MommaFoxFire encouraging anyone struggling to take that first step toward help. It might be scary, but it's worth it. Mark says it best: “You can't heal what you keep hiding. Talking about it doesn't make you weak, it keeps you alive.”This episode is a gut check and a lifeline all at once.

According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2021 and 2022, people ages 75 and older had the highest suicide rate among all age groups. The data also reveals the rate was largely driven by males. First, for “Closer Look’s” National Suicide Prevention and Awareness series, host Rose Scott talked with Amanda Krisher, the associate director of behavioral health at the National Council on Aging. Krisher dispelled myths about aging and suicide. She also talked about the importance of listening and asking questions to address the mental health needs of older adults. Plus, data from Moodle and Censuswide shows 66% of employees are experiencing burnout. Scott talks with Georgia Wolfe-Samuel, a longtime CPA, now restaurateur and career burnout prevention specialist. Also part of the conversation, Mayra Richards, the CEO and founder of Remain Connected Counseling. They addressed career burnout and ways to address it. Wolfe-Samuel added her own story about overcoming career burnout, suicidal ideation and using her experiences to help others.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this powerful episode of LaidOPEN Podcast, I sit down with medical researcher, writer, and host of Modern Hysteria, Micah Larsen, to dive deep into her deeply personal and courageous journey through PMDD, menopause, and preeclampsia. With warmth and unflinching honesty, Micah illuminates the painful gaps in our healthcare system and the persistence of medical misogyny—and, more importantly, how we can begin to dismantle those barriers. We explore: The courage it takes to speak openly about taboo topics like incontinence, childbirth, postpartum challenges, and menopause. How narrative and advocacy are essential tools for transforming women's healthcare. Micah's Montana farm: a place of solace, healing, and self-acceptance that has helped her reclaim her body and spirit amid the storms. This episode is equal parts urgent call to action and celebration of resilience—a reminder that better women's healthcare starts with brave conversations and compassionate communities. Note: This episode includes discussions of very heavy themes, including suicide. If you're feeling fragile, you might choose to listen in gentle doses, on a different day, or skip it altogether. But know this: this is an inspiring conversation—and I hope it helps ignite a true women's medical rights movement.

In Part 2 of Nichole Henson's powerful story, we find out what happened after the abuse. Because freedom isn't always instant—and healing? It's a battlefield. Nichole opens up about her journey as a licensed therapist, all while secretly spiraling. Self-harm. Rage. Hearing voices that hated her husband, her child, her parents—and God. For years, she believed those voices were just a broken part of her. But the truth? It was deeper than mental illness. It was demonic. She couldn't get her thoughts under control because they weren't hers. She had unknowingly partnered with torment—and deliverance was the only way out. Sis, this is not just another “look what God did” story. It's raw. It's intense. And it's a wake-up call for every woman battling silently behind a smile. If you've ever felt like your mind was at war, like your faith and your feelings were pulling you in opposite directions, or like freedom was for everyone but you—this episode is your reminder that God isn't finished with you yet.

This episode will leave you speechless—and then send you straight to your knees. Nichole Henson doesn't hold back as she shares her jaw-dropping journey through childhood abuse, spiritual darkness, and years of torment that no one talks about from the pulpit. We're talking witchcraft. Sexual abuse. Mind control. Spiritual warfare. All before the age of 10. But Sis, this isn't where the story ends. In 2020, Nichole had a radical encounter with Jesus—and experienced true deliverance that changed EVERYTHING. This isn't your Sunday School testimony. It's gritty, it's raw, and it's dripping with the power of the Holy Spirit. If you've ever battled mental torment, generational trauma, or felt like you were under attack for simply breathing—you need to hear this.

What happens when your brain betrays you with seizures that arrive without warning and leave you depressed for days? Meet Landis, a writer and podcaster who developed epilepsy after brain tumor surgery at age 32. In this illuminating conversation, she breaks down the reality of living with seizures that arrive without warning, including the four-day depression cycle that follows each episode. From creating a post-seizure self-care system complete with personal reminders, to experiencing fascinating "auras" where her brain conjures fictional characters like "Mrs. Bit Binder," Landis shares it all with remarkable honesty and humor. She also discusses how epilepsy affected her dating life (including having a seizure during some hanky panky sexy times!), the service dog who detects her seizures before they happen, and how this condition has simultaneously limited her independence while deepening her appreciation for life's small moments. A powerful reminder of resilience in the face of chronic illness.You can watch this entire episode over on YouTube!Check out Landis' podcast "What The Ef"Follow Sickboy on Instagram, TikTok and Discord.
