Podcasts about Suicide prevention

In this episode, four of the top experts in researching and treating nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) talk about the research behind NSSI Disorder, the evolution of how they now think about NSSI within the context of the DSM, and why they now advocate for an NSSI specifier rather than an NSSI Disorder in the DSM. They also delineate their proposed criteria for self-harm as a specifier and both the positive and negative consequences of doing so.Below are papers referenced in this episode:Lengel, G. J., Muehlenkamp, J. J., Zetterqvist, M., Ammerman, B. A., Brausch, A. M., & Washburn, J. J. (2025). Non-suicidal self-injury: proposal to shift designation from disorder to a clinical specifier. The Lancet Psychiatry. Online advanced publication.Shaffer, D., & Jacobson, C. (2009). Proposal to the DSM-V childhood disorder and mood disorder work groups to include non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) as a DSM-V disorder. American Psychiatric Association, 1-21.Muehlenkamp, J. J. (2005). Self-injurious behavior as a separate clinical syndrome. American Journal of Orthopsychiatry, 75(2), 324–333.Brausch, A. (2019). Diagnostic classification of nonsuicidal self-injury. In J. J. Washburn (Ed.), Nonsuicidal self-injury: Advances in research and practice (pp. 71-87). Routledge.NONSUICIDAL SELF-INJURY SPECIFIER (PROPOSED CRITERIA):A. The specifier should be used when the nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) behavior is characterized by the following:The individual intentionally engages in NSSI behavior to inflict bodily damage or painThe individual's NSSI behavior is recent, such that it occurred at least once during the past monthThe individual's NSSI behavior is repetitive, such that it occurred on about 5 or more days in an individual's lifetimeNote: culturally specific NSSI behavior (e.g., piercings and tattoos) and harm that is habitual (e.g., scab picking, nail biting, and hair pulling) should not be considered to be NSSI unless the behavior is explicitly for the purposes of causing damage or pain to one's body. The NSSI specifier can still be applied if the behavior occurs under the influence of substances, as long as the behavior meets the required features.Coding note: use code Z91.52 for individuals with a previous history of NSSI when all criteria except for recency are met (A2).Want to have a bigger role on the podcast?:Should you or someone you know be interviewed on the podcast?

September is a busy time for veterinary teams, and this episode provides a practical roadmap. The Veterinary Viewfinder welcomes Catherine Haskins from “The Bridge Club” to spotlight three profession-wide initiatives you can activate now. First up, Suicide Prevention Month: Haskins shares Project Sticker's “Change That Sticks” micro-donation campaign and StickWithUs.vet, a single hub aggregating mental health resources across veterinary medicine, along with a reminder that 988 is available when a crisis arises. Teams get a free toolkit (jar labels, social assets, break-room infographic) and motivation to become QPR gatekeepers (free via AVMA). There are even VetFolio subscription rewards for top practices and individual donors. Second, Sustainability September (with Mars Veterinary Health): a daily calendar of bite-size tips, checklists (including a carbon-footprint starter), and evidence that greener choices can improve workflow and save time—from rethinking glove use and sterilization wrap to anesthetic gas scavenging and reusable shipping (e.g., MWI pilots). Finally, a profession-wide Kindness Coalition is taking shape, with academic and industry partners working together to reinforce civility within clinics and with clients. Actionable, optimistic, and team-first, this episode equips leaders and staff to launch meaningful culture and operations changes this month. #VeterinaryMedicine, #VetTechLife, #SuicidePreventionMonth, #SustainableVetMed, #KindnessInVetMed

Youth suicide has become a national crisis, with devastating impacts on families, communities and health care systems. As one of the leading causes of death among adolescents, suicide presents a critical challenge for health care providers. In this third episode of the AANP Adolescent Podcast Series, hosts Dr. Jessica Peck and Ashley Hodges explore the growing prevalence of youth suicide, associated risk factors, warning signs and the essential role of nurse practitioners (NPs) in early identification, intervention and prevention. Through clinical insight, real-world experiences and practical tools, providers are equipped to navigate these complex conversations, reduce stigma and connect at-risk youth with life-saving care.--- Key Points: Suicide is the second leading cause of death among individuals aged 10–24. Risk factors include previous suicide attempts, affective disorders (especially major depressive disorder), substance abuse, bullying, access to lethal means and social isolation. Girls attempt suicide more often, but boys typically use more lethal methods (such as firearms). Situational triggers, such as online sextortion or bullying, can prompt impulsive suicide attempts with little warning. Warning signs include changes in sleep, appetite, hygiene, mood, social withdrawal, giving away possessions and expressions of hopelessness. Non-suicidal self-injury (e.g., cutting, burning) is a strong predictor of future suicide attempts. Evidence-based screening tools include the ASQ (Ask Suicide-Screening Questions), PHQ-9A, Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale and the Patient Safety Screener. Creating a safety plan and restricting access to lethal means (e.g., firearms, medications) is essential in prevention. Encouraging emotional literacy and normalizing mental health discussions with teens can foster resilience and trust. Connection, validation and early intervention save lives — NPs play a pivotal role in detection and support. Call to Action for providers and families: Don't ignore warning signs. It's okay to ask directly about suicide. Connection is a powerful protective factor. Invite listeners to share this episode and use their voice for suicide prevention.

Asking questions about mental health is not easy. What's even harder is asking those questions well. But here's the truth: community providers are uniquely positioned to spot the early warning signs of mental health struggles, including suicide risk. In fact, youth who attempt or die by suicide are far more likely to have contact with their PCP compared to a mental health provider in the months leading up to the event. Are providers identifying kids at risk? Are they asking the right questions in ways that open the door to real answers? In this episode, we confront this critical reality in front of a live audience. We are bringing practical tools to the hands of providers in our community. The way providers screen for emotional and mental health challenges can mean the difference between silence and survival. This episode was recorded in front of a live audience as our first community podcast experience. Stay tuned as we announce more opportunities like this across the region. This episode was cosponsored by The Liv Project: a nonprofit organization determined to take the conversation about youth mental health out of the shadows. For this episode, we have three incredible experts. Honey Beuf is the Co-Founder of The Liv Project, Liv's Mother, as well as an educator and advocate. She was on the podcast previously to share the story behind their documentary ‘My Sister Liv.' You can listen to that episode here. Susan Caso, MA LPC, is the Mental Health Advisor for The Liv Project, as well as a licensed therapist and author. Gina Herrmann, MD, is a pediatrician with Arvada Pediatric Associates. Some highlights from this episode include:  How specific word choices or ways to phrase a question can make a huge difference in creating a safe space for children  Ways primary care providers can support families of children experiencing suicidal thoughts  Steps PCP offices can take to implement helpful mental health support processes  Understanding the support systems that exist in communities around the globe  For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org. 

A multi-site randomized trial found that the suicide-prevention app OTX202 reduced repeat suicide attempts by 58% and sustained lower suicidal ideation through 24 weeks, especially in high-risk patients with prior attempts. A phase 3 trial showed canagliflozin significantly improved glycemic control in children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes, with safety comparable to adults. Finally, the SWIFT-SEG liquid biopsy detected multiple myeloma tumor cells in over 90% of cases, offering a less invasive alternative to bone marrow biopsies for diagnosis, monitoring, and precision treatment.

Hi Parents! What if the biggest warning sign your teen is struggling is silence? In today's episode, I'm joined by Elliot Kallen, President of A Brighter Day, a nonprofit organization founded in memory of his son Jake, who tragically died by suicide at 19 years old. Elliot shares the heart-wrenching story behind A Brighter Day and how it has since grown into a powerful support system for teens and families navigating stress, depression and suicidal thoughts. More About Elliot: Elliot Kallen is the President and Co-Founder of A Brighter Day, a nonprofit dedicated to preventing teen suicide by providing free mental health toolkits, school-based events, and resources for both teens and parents. Since launching in 2015, the organization now reaches between 5,000 and 10,000 families each month. Elliot's mission began with unimaginable loss. Jake never shared the pain he was carrying, until his final letter. That letter changed everything for Elliot and his family, exposing the silent battles many teens face and the urgent need for better conversations and accessible mental health support. What started as a personal tragedy has since become a national movement offering education, connection, and hope. In our conversation, Elliot opens up about what parents need to know - the signs that often go unnoticed, what to say when you're worried, and why it's so important to normalize mental health discussions at home.

Text a Message to the ShowOn this episode we're talking to Dr. Olivia Johnson from Blue Wall Institute.  She is a researcher and subject expert on police wellness and specifically on police suicide and she is the jagged little pill stuck in the throat of the huge law enforcement machine that is funneling huge amounts of money at suicide prevention.  Today she's going to talk about suicide prevention is broken, primarily because of the things that no body, not the family and not the agency, wants to talk about.  But these are the things that a serious researcher like Olivia uncovers.  Settle in because this is a conversation that shines a light where no one wants to look.Resources:https://www.bw-institute.comMusic is by LesFMHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 119Tags:Police, Autopsy, Epidemic, Family, Funding, Relationships, Prevention, Propaganda, PTSD, Research, Suicide, StatisticsSupport the showThanks for Listening!

The summer 2025 season concludes with a great conversation with Lynda Gargan. Lynda shares some of her personal story of raising a son with mental health challenges, as well as her professional journey that led her to The National Federation of Families (NFF, https://www.ffcmh.org/). We discuss the importance of listening to our children, advocating for them, and mental health education. Lynda does a deep dive on all of the ways NFF works for families dealing with mental health issues and the mission of The National Federation of Families, which is a national family-run organization that serves as the national voice for families whose loved ones experience mental health and/or substance use disorders during their lifetime. Lynda stresses the importance of treating the whole person and how, unfortunately, there is such a division between treating those who struggle with both mental illness and substance use disorder.  Lynda encourages listeners to peruse the website and to call the NFF with any questions or for help. We conclude by discussing the annual NFF Conference (https://www.ffcmh.org/2025-conference), which will be held virtually this year.
