The Suicide Journal
Eric Garretson
40 episodes
2 days ago
About 8 years ago i had a dear friend take his own life. There were many things that led to his decision that made a person think to themselves, "I understand why he did it." He left a not sort of just airing his grievances, but recently I came accros a journal that he kept and wrote in daily. It is the last year of his life. What this podcast is going to do is to take the entries that have significance to him ultimately commiting suicide, and breaking them down and coming up with better ways it could have been handled. Hopefully serving as a playbook to prevent it in the future.

Samantha's Story

This is the first of many episodes I am calling "Keeping The Conversation Going." With Will's story coming to an end, I decided to talk to listeners who have had their own struggles. People who have been down and were able to climb up out of it and make a good life for themselves. My hope is, that it inspires those who are suffering from depression to carry on. Samantha's story is heartbreaking at first. The things that she went through i couldn't even imagine. But she survived and is living her best life now. This is her story. Told by her. I'm still working out some audio issues so the sound quality is not quite up to my standards but its decent considering how we had to do the interview. You're not going to want to miss this episode. Her story is tragic, upsetting at times, and then inspiring. You walk away from her story knowing that no matter what life throws at you, there is a way to rise above it. Just like Samantha did.
