September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month!  The topic of suicide is often one that can feel very heavy, and often one that we avoid discussion.  The rates of suicide continue to increase, particularly in the Black community making this episode so necessary for all of us to listen to.  During this episode, I sit down with Licensed Psycholoigst Dr. Sheronda Farrow and we discuss everything suicide prevention.  Dr. Farrow walks us through recognizing the signs of suicide, how to help those who may be struggling, questions to ask if you think someone may be at risk, and how we can normalize the discussion about suicide. This episode was created as way to inspire a discussion about Suicide Prevention and Awareness---it really is EVERYONE's business.If you, or someone you know is in need of support surrounding suicidal thoughts, plan, or intent, please call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) for immediate assistance.  Below are some additional resources that you can review for additional support.
