The pain of suicide lingers after you're gone | Mark MI Words #mentalillness #PTSD

When I attempted to take my own life a few years ago, i didn't realize at the time, but I didn't actually want to be dead. I thought I did.

All I wanted was for the pain to stop.

I need to give you an understanding of who I am in this conversation. i am a suicide survivor. I am a carer for a direct loved one who has survived a suicide attempt.

I've lived with suicidal ideation myself, and I've also lost people, particularly one person that we're going to speak about today.

I didn't understand when I attempted to take my life that the pain that I was feeling was not going to end with my end.

It would linger on in the people around me.

I want to talk about that today. It's a hard discussion and it's a difficult discussion.
