My nephew ended his life (I was about to say “committed suicide,” but this podcast has already taught me that that language is hurtful) two weeks ago. Until I listened to this podcast, I was guilty of thinking how selfish he was,especially knowing that his brother had done the same 22 years ago and what it had done to their mother then. Couldn’t he at least have left a note? Having listened to only two episodes, I now realize I can’t begin to understand the pain (although James Longman’s description goes a long way in that direction) my nephew must have been in. Dr. Draper in that same show says that suicide is the most “selfless act” a person can commit, in that person’s mind. (I’ll have to listen to that segment again.) Anyway, if you’re living through the heartache of someone close to you ending their own life, I emphatically urge to start listening to this podcast. I feel so much better already!

Lost my wife to suicide 10 months ago, and this podcast is proving itself to be worthwhile both for those directly touched by suicide and just the casual listener. I appreciate that at least the first couple guests haven’t been filled with jargon-y self-help-speak but instead from genuine places...Read full review »
