    OCD, Grief, and Still Searching with David B Gourgues | VIDEO | Mark MI Words

    As men, we have often been trained to try to ignore the pain of grief, the scars of a battle with cancer, the trauma of our own mental illness, and to never ask the big questions. David B Gourgues is a man who is determined to undermine and challenge these thought processes. He is facing his grief and trauma head on and challenging us all to seek more. To not be afraid and face life head on... questioning all the way. Sometimes the answer is the question.

    Suicide! Is it too soon to laugh about it? -with Frank King | VIDEO | Mark MI Words

    What does stand-up comedy and suicide have in common you might ask? You may answer that only a lunatic would do it! Today I ask my guest, comedian and suicide‑prevention advocate Frank King, to explain how his two seemingly unrelated careers—professional stand‑up comedy and suicide‑prevention speaking—intersect and inform one another. So, is it too soon to laugh about suicide? When can we laugh about aspects of suicide? And above all, why should we talk about suicide?

    Stories from BUMWIPER the book - 7 hour struggle to save a life | VIDEO | Mark MI Words

    Stories from BUMWIPER the book - 7 hour struggle to save a life | Mark MI Words My new book has just come out. It's called 'BUMWIPER- 18 years working with people with disabilities'. And today I'm going to tell you one of the stories that's in this book.This is my story of trying to save a man with brain injury and psychosis from ending his own life. Be aware. This episode contains depictions of suicidal behavior, suicide, violence, blood, and a little bit of gore.📌 BUMWIPER | A True Story of Disability Support, Trauma & CPTSD 📌 BUMWIPER is more than a book—it's a deeply personal story of working on the front lines of disability support and the lasting impact that caring for others can have on those who provide that care. 📌 For 18 years, I worked directly with people living with intellectual disability, physical disability, acquired brain injury, emotional disability, and dual diagnoses. Those experiences shaped my life in ways I never expected. 📌 While still working in the industry, I began writing this book. Years later, after experiencing Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), the story took on an entirely new meaning. This video is one story from the book.📚 Get the book: hhttps://www.amazon.com.au/BUMWIPER-Years-Working-People-Disabilities/dp/B0H73VSDRX/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1VN3GUJVL209A&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.YQxXLhTC2hLiaZWiHVHleDUYKiATApGgwSkQfnjR_Ug_GLYRnqTwPiwhO5PPvbeH5dCqB4-j8y2Is4s461DiuemHG8Vysx4273i3afDG0Zk.JZSNXAawPuwngFmdkmx9zzLzaFwqOVL5RJoKFcxevXs&dib_tag=se&keywords=bumwiper&qid=1783996924&sprefix=bumwiper%2Caps%2C937&sr=8-9
