EP 37 | Suicide Awareness: What Happens When “I’m Tired” Means “I Don’t Want to Be Here”?

Everybody says, “Check on your people.” But what do you do when somebody tells you the truth and says they don’t want to be here?In this episode of The Blck Impact, I’m talking about the stuff we tend to rush past: how we dismiss people when they finally open up, why “you’re so strong” isn’t always helpful, and what it looks like to actually sit with somebody who’s struggling.This conversation includes thoughts of suicide and self-harm. Please take care of yourself while listening.
