Suicide rates are a growing problem. However, the good news is that it's 100% preventable. With nearly 1 million people per year dying by suicide, we need to discuss how best to identify and care for those in distress. In this episode, we talk about myths surrounding mental illness and misconceptions about suicidal ideation. Make sure to stick around for the full thing and share with a friend!
We're so excited that governments all over the world are taking initiative--most recently Kenya launched the Suicide Prevention Strategy which will provide a framework of interventions to reduce suicide mortality in the country.
Additionally, we'd like to applaud The Josiah Gathura Foundation for the amazing work they do to move the needle towards reducing deaths by suicide. Here is a link for more information: http://jgkmfoundation.org/
