"One year ago this month, I met Magdalena at our Kambô training in California. Our Virgo energy immediately gravitated towards each other, and that's when we became Virgo sisters. I'm honored to be joining her for another podcast, especially on such an important and vulnerable topic: depression, suicide, and anxiety. It's a subject close to my heart, and while it's often seen as taboo, we're here to break the stigma, especially during Suicide Awareness Month.” Today she shared her survivor story of how she went from a very, very dark place before her attempt and lived to tell about it She gave VERY practical tips and doable tools to help you overcome mental health challenges We also talked about Kambo, the healing frog medicine from the jungle that helps her (and me) and her clients (and mine) with mental health, addiction and overall mind/body/spirit health With her background in science, she also shared about spirituality and how that can play a role in overcoming She shared her own personal mental health journey, as well as addictive behaviors and we got raw and real about the importance of speaking your truth, as you just might not be alone and can save a life (including your own!)

As we come to the end of Suicide Awareness Month and as I continue to struggle with my own mental health, including suicidal ideation at times. I wanted to do at least one podcast episode focusing on suicide in an effort to help support others. Therefore, about a week ago when I was suicidal and crying a lot, my best friend mentioned how suicide happens in clusters (at times) and if I killed myself then I would transfer all my pain to them. Now partly my best friend was saying that because one of my whole reasons to stay alive is so I don't hurt them. However, it got me thinking about how suicides can create ripples in social communities and in groups, and schools are a great example of the damaging impact of these ripples. As a result, in this clinical psychology episode, you'll learn why suicides need to be supported after suicide loss, how can schools support students after suicide loss and how we can create a more supportive school environment. If you enjoy learning about suicide, mental health and suicide postvention then this is a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn how "Unconscious Exposure Therapy" might be a game changer, and what sort of reaction people have when seeing someone in pain. Do we rush to help or back away? LISTEN NOW!

Trigger Warning: This episode has a general discussion about suicide.September is World Suicide Awareness Month. This is such an important topic to raise awareness for, because there is STILL a stigma around poor mental wellbeing or mental health.Suicide is one of those topics that many people are scared to talk about, whether you are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings, or someone is telling you that they are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings. The world has thankfully moved on in being able to discuss things like depression or anxiety more openly. However, sadly, there are MANY mental health related topics that are still very much taboo. Suicide is one of them.In talking about it, I hope that fewer people feel alone with these feelings, because it truly can be an experience ANY of us can go through, plus what better way than to put a doggie spin on things!Important Links From This Episode:1.

Send us a textHave you ever wondered why boys are often told to "man up" but to never challenge authority? This episode unpacks the deeply ingrained cultural and gender norms that shape our responses to bullying and mental health. We highlight the importance of fostering self-care and challenging outdated notions of masculinity, especially for men who are often caught in the tough yet submissive paradox. As we mark Suicide Awareness Month, the conversation emphasizes the urgent need to prioritize mental health, drawing particular attention to the context in South Africa.Join us as I share my personal journey from a home where emotions were seldom discussed to becoming a psychiatrist deeply attuned to the impact of family dynamics and personal growth. Through my story, you'll learn how emotional self-awareness transformed my professional and personal life, making me a better therapist and a more empathetic human being. This episode underscores the value of therapy—not just as a place to unpack your burdens but as a unique, unbiased support system crucial for personal development.We dedicate significant time to dismantling harmful stereotypes about masculinity and femininity. True masculinity involves bravery, emotional intelligence, and the strength to be vulnerable. We also discuss the critical need for investment in mental health resources, reflecting on the alarming rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide, especially among youth. This isn't just about changing perceptions but about advocating for systemic changes that can improve lives. Engage with us as we explore the need for cultural sensitivity in therapy, the importance of mental health education, and the power of kindness and empathy in shaping a better world for future generations.Support the show

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Sara Glass about her new memoir, "Kissing Girls on Shabbat." Growing up in an extremely sheltered Orthodox Hassidic Jewish community, Sara decided to become a therapist and mental health professional partially because seeing how her sister Shani's mental health issues impacted her family. When Shani ultimately took her own life, Sara came out of the closet after years of struggling with her sexual identity and eventually wrote a memoir about her path towards self acceptance and an open life. We talk about the different ways that we interalize our own trauma, and how hard it can be to find ways to be honest with the people in our lives about what we are going through. We also talk about the stigma that comes with suicide and mental health issues in general, and how important it is to recognise that we never have to do it alone.

The world of filmmaking is full of challenges, from industry rejection to personal setbacks. Yet, for many independent filmmakers, these obstacles become opportunities for growth and perseverance. This episode explores how passion, persistence, and a refusal to give up can turn seemingly insurmountable odds into career-defining moments. Whether you're an aspiring filmmaker or a seasoned professional, the story of how Nadine Crocker made her mark in the industry is sure to inspire. Nadine Crocker is a filmmaker, actor, and mental health advocate whose latest feature, Continue, is based on her own struggles with depression and suicide. The award-winning drama tells the story of a woman who, after a failed suicide attempt, is taken to a mental institution where she finds unexpected friendships, love, and a new purpose. Set for release by Lionsgate during Suicide Awareness Month, the film has already garnered critical acclaim for its raw portrayal of mental health struggles. Nadine not only wrote, directed, and produced Continue, but also stars in it, bringing an intensely personal narrative to life. After years of being typecast and facing rejection, she took control of her career, creating projects that speak to her truth, including Desperation Road, her second Lionsgate release. In today's episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins speaks with Nadine Crocker to discuss: Being dropped by her reps shortly after having her first baby—and how it led her to make Continue independently. Breaking free from being typecast and proving herself as a writer, director, and producer. Balancing waitressing and raising a newborn while working on her first feature film. Securing financing through personal savings and a small group of supportive investors. Deciding to stop waiting for permission and create her own opportunities. How Continue became a movement for mental health awareness through her nonprofit, Continue On. Memorable Quotes: “I did hear like all the time, I was too pretty to pay the best friend and I wasn't famous enough to be the lead.” [6:01] “I'm done asking for permission. I'm making this movie and I don't care what I have to do or how much work or how many years it takes.” [9:16] “I invested my life savings into this movie, like every time we had, and went back to waitressing so that I could keep the lights on.” [11:30] "Imagine being dropped in the middle of the ocean with nothing but a hard drive, and you gotta keep it over your head and tread motherfucking water until someone comes."

Suicide? Ugh - no, we don't want to talk (or write) about that... but it is Suicide Awareness Month, and many have or will lose loved ones in their lifetime.  According to the CDC, suicide is  in the top 9 leading causes of death for people between the ages of 10 to 64.  It is the second cause of death for those between 10-14 and 20-34. Ugh!!Having two children under the age of ten with suicide losses on both sides of our family (which raises statistical odds), we are very cautious about how and when and why we talk about this. They know how our relatives died, but they do not know details. We meet them where they are in their questions and understanding, and are very solution focused when it comes to mental hygiene and what works and what doesn't.Here is my list of things that help, which I share with my husband, George, on the show, (along with a few things I forgot to say):- Get Outside- Get Some Sun- Go For a Walk- Change Your Temperature (hot/cold therapy)- Animal Therapy- Cuddles and Kisses (6 seconds to release seratonin - no quickies!)- Eating healthy foods- Eating healthy amounts- Eating at appropriate times- Exercise!!- Prayer- Meditation- Journaling- Reading Books that Improve Your Outlook- Therapy- Taking Prescription Medication as Prescribed by a doctor- Vitamins- Naps- A good sleep at night (we are diurnal!)- Spending more time with Great Influences- Sharing with a friendA few things that we joke about, but really don't necessarily help include "not getting out of bed all day" (unless those are doctor's orders - and even then, the goal is to get out of bed again!!); not exercising; overeating junk food; self medicating with drugs or alcohol as you wish; doomscrolling; watching or spending time with negative or horrific TV shows or influencers, and just generally not taking care of yourself.The focus for mental health is "Good Orderly Direction." Try out any one of the things listed above - sometimes just sweepoing is good enough for today. If you are struggling, or know someone who is, remember you do not have to do this alone. Please reach out. The suicide hotline is 988, and you can find my contact below.Remember, "Joy shared is double joy and sorrow shared is half sorrow." Reach out and touch someone! You are NOT alone.PS - EDIT on the pastor story, I said "Florida," but it actually was North Carolina. The point of it is that terrible things can and will continue to happen in this world - we cannot control that, but we can control our response. We are praying for all those affected by this horrific event that is still unfolding, especially close friends and families.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health

Suicide cases have dramatically increased during the pandemic as exacerbated by the challenging circumstances brought about by the pandemic. And at present, the sad reality is that the number of suicide cases has been alarmingly increasing in the previous years. It is vital that we acknowledge this escalating crisis and strive to prioritize mental health support and resources. By addressing the root causes, raising awareness, and fostering a society that values mental well-being, we can work towards reducing these alarming suicide rates and supporting those in need during these challenging times.And since it's Suicide Awareness Month, we're going to dive deep into suicide and self-harm to help educate more people particularly about the signs to be aware of.When should we be concerned about self-harm?For around 30 years, I've been supporting kids dealing with self-harm and suicidal thoughts. Throughout those years, I've emphasized the importance of addressing these issues effectively. Moreover, what I have noticed is that nobody ever thinks their kid is considering ending their life. However, there are many risk factors or red flags that we just miss.Also, it's necessary for us to distinguish self-harm from suicide; they are two different things. People with suicidal thoughts contemplate or attempt to end their own life. Most of them struggle with severe emotional pain, mental health issues, or overwhelming life circumstances. On the other hand, self harm involves intentionally causing harm to oneself without the intent to cause death. Common forms of self-harm include cutting, burning, hitting, or any behavior that causes physical harm to oneself. Self-harm involves intentional harmful behaviors like cutting, often distinct from suicidal ideation. Non-suicidal self-injury, also known as deliberate self-harm, is a concerning issue closely related to suicide risk and mental disorders, as highlighted by the World Health Organization. This deliberate self-harm does not involve a direct intention of ending one's life but is often a way for individuals to cope with emotional pain or stress. However, it can escalate to suicide life threat behaviors if left unaddressed, particularly in the case of mental disorders.Youth suicide prevention is a critical component of adolescent mental health, especially in middle-income countries, where mental health services may face significant challenges in accessibility and affordability. The prevalence of self-injurious behavior necessitates a comprehensive approach to mental health support, including education, awareness campaigns, and improved availability of mental health services. Collaboration between governments, communities, and healthcare systems is vital to creating a safety net for those at risk and fostering a society that values mental well-being, ultimately mitigating the alarming trends in deliberate self-harm and suicide.If your child shows signs of depression or self-harm, seek mental health support immediately. Suicidal ideation covers a range of thoughts, from a desire for life to feeling overwhelmed. Any such statement necessitates investigation and mental health assistance. If you're concerned about your child's well-being, reach out to a mental health professional or call the suicide hotline at 1-800-273-5855. Take these matters seriously and prioritize your child's mental health.Risk factors for suicide.Aside from bullying, the most common reason as to why young adults resort to self-harm impulsively is because of a breakup. The emotional toll of a breakup can be overwhelming, leaving individuals grappling with a surge of intense feelings such as sadness, rejection, loneliness, and hopelessness. Because of this, they push themselves towards impulsive actions like self-harm as a way to cope with the emotional pain.It might seem like a way to...

The newest survey from the Pew Charitable Trusts concludes suicide is an urgent public health issue. Their data shows that while the suicide rate increased an alarming 30% across the board over a 20-year span, the rate for Native American and Alaska Native females rose a staggering 135% over the same time. The number for Native males is close behind. At least half of those people had contact with the health care system within a month of taking their own lives, indicating an opportunity for trained professionals to intervene. It's Suicide Awareness Month, and we'll look at the promising work to turn around a dire trend.

#172: Ultra Runner Hopes To Save Lives With 444 Mile Challenge, Years After His Suicide Attempt

It's a huge challenge in September, Suicide Awareness Month. My guest for this episode of "Run The Race" knows how pain and failure can make you feel like giving up on life, but he wants to provide hope, in part through his upcoming longest run ever. (3:20) Phil Parsons, a combat infantry veteran and ultra runner and husband/dad, is planning to go 444 miles on foot, running or walking that distance over the course of 11 days, all to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention, especially among vets: https://pledgeit.org/natr. What's his training been like for the 444 that will happen September 20-30 from TN to MS on the Natchez Trace? How about his emotions? He's also doing this to change the narrative of his life. (11:25) Phil joined the Army not too long before the September 11 attacks, ending up on deployments to Iraq, seeing horrible things that did not bother him until he came back home. He talks about being angry, losing his marriage, being emotionless. (18:05) This veteran tried to kill himself several times, the last suicide attempt being a gun to his head 16 years ago, in September - this 444 mile challenge being around the anniversary of that. He describes why he almost ended it all and why he didn't go through with it. (24:30) Through all the pain, he found running...starting with a marathon in GA, moving up to a 50K, then the Pinhoti 100. At first, he was often running angry, but found something different on the trails: the feeling of being a kid again, getting to be himself - without a mask. Now, he GETS to run and also helps other veterans on his job as a social worker. He loves helping fellow troops, but had to take care of himself first. (31:49) For his upcoming 444 miles, Phil discusses the logistics (40 miles per day), support(getting help from running group "Band of Brothers"), and nutrition/hydration that will be central to his week-and-a-half journey. Think electrolytes, PB&Js, Chex Mix, and more. Meantime, his triathlete wife is no slouch, training for an Ironman. You can learn more about the 444 here: https://unbridledrunning.com/the-four-forty-four/ Part of his journey is also being a (42:48) cult survivor, just going along as he grew up, but being terrified to break free, and finally being able to question things in life. (47:07) Phil also has a life-saving message for anyone, especially former/current military, that involves a story about a bridge on the Natchez Trace that has seen too much tragedy. The takeaway: Sit with the pain and discomfort in life or running, and it will get better, things will turn around. Stay in motion and do something! After our chat, I close the pod in prayer.
