This is an inspiring story of hope from Bee, a suicide attempt survivor who wishes to help suicide loss-survivors heal from the responsibility and guilt they may feel. Since her attempt, Bee is on a mission as a mental health advocate to make sure she does all she can to reduce the lives lost to suicide. After having her own grief and struggling with mental health problems since a young age, Bee gives amazing insights on her own journey. Hear us discuss many issues of mental health and suicide. Including why Bee did what she did that day and how she shares this to help us understand how depression confused her thinking so much and clouded reality. Please listen to this with extra care. Bee and I share this discussion because I do believe by understanding suicide more, we can start to make sense of why our loved ones did what they did.  I am also acutely aware that there is always a myriad of reasons why people take their own lives, but hope that with the complexity of every suicide-attempt story I share, society begin to understand that suicide is never simple. I am also very aware that stories like this can be difficult to listen to as suicide-loss survivors because we so wish our loved ones were still here to share their story. Hence please listen when you feel able to and switch off at any point if you are noticing it is too much for you to hear right now. These podcasts will remain here as long as podcasts exist, so you can always revisit it when you are at a different point in your journey with grief. Please listen with care and know there are people out there that can help and support you.  Within the UK:  Samaritans - Free on 116 123  Suicide&Co - Free on 0800 054 8400 Mon-Friday 9aam-9pm  Within the US:  Suicide Hotline: Free on 1-800-273-8255 or text 742741  Find Dr Sue: Instagram Facebook Linked In For more resources: www.suicidegriefsupport.com For EMDR Grief Retreats - www.EMDRGriefRetreat.com   The links you need from this episode: Bee on Instagram Bee on Facebook Twitter: Beeinspiredtalk
