Episode 38: National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month - Re-released Episode - a podcast by Operation Podcast

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and if you've been a listener of the show you probably know that this topic is very near and dear to my heart. A little over two months ago my uncle took his own life after a very long and hard battle with mental illness and substance abuse. Today's episode is a re-release of the episode I recorded after his passing addressing suicide risks, warning signs, and protective factors for victims and family members. Let's all do our part to de-stigmatize suicide and mental health and continue to encourage the conversation with our loves ones, peers, and coworkers. Together we can make a difference. Together we can save a life.
