BRUH ha made you say it 🤣 ,

Thanks

Yes, society does not speak on this topic. I love the idea of how to cope and communicate on such complex issues.

You’re wrong about 988

Hey, thank you for this podcast.
You’re wrong about not posting the suicidal hotline number (Episode 1).
You never know when someone is going to click on those numbers and end up talking to someone instead of killing themself. Most of the times is just a matter of seconds to change your mind or go the other way.

Dial 988
Call or text 24/7.
