Sober on Purpose


Dec 30, 2022

Suicide is one of the most devastating experiences that can happen in a person's life. It's a long-term solution to a short-term problem, and it may leave loved ones saddened, mystified, and alone. 

In this episode, Micahel Marx talks about Suicide, its signs, and how to prevent it. This is a susceptible topic yet very important to spread awareness and save lives. 

Some people who commit suicide may seek to escape feelings of rejection, hurt, or loss. Others may be angry, embarrassed, or guilty over something. Some people are concerned about disappointing friends or relatives. Some people may feel unwanted, unloved, mistreated, or burdened by others. 

Suicide is avoidable; everyone can help save lives and build healthy, strong people, families, and communities. Suicide prevention involves a multifaceted public health strategy.

Wisdom Words:

“A lot of times the pain is emotional. Even if it is physical, there's emotional pain that goes within.”

“So when you're talking about ideation, they just say, I just wish this were all over. And that's already a sign. And get me very clearly on this point, I want everyone listening to be really clear on this point.”

“make suicide conversations normal–  normalize the conversation, because the stigma that we're not allowed to talk about it, that's what keeps people isolated. “
