Warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide and suicidal ideation.When Sara and I first spoke about her appearance on Feminist Hotdog, I wasn't entirely clear on the connection between feminism and suicide prevention. However, after this conversation, I realized that suicide is a stigma-laden topic that—like addiction and abuse—often impacts women in unseen ways and must be talked about openly for anything to improve.In this episode, Sara explains how our medical and emergency response systems are falling short when it comes to suicide prevention and how we can become agents of change by using our voices to challenge cultural narratives about women and mental health. We also dig into some promising developments in policy and treatment and how you can get involved in spreading the word and smashing the stigma around suicide.If you've ever lost someone to suicide or know someone who has, I highly recommend you listen to this healing and inspiring episode.Stuff We Talked About on This EpisodeAmerican Foundation For Suicide PreventionBecome an Advocate for Suicide Prevention
