In this episode of Question It., with it’s **Trigger Warning** I delve into the deeply emotional and complex topic of uicide,
exploring the question, 'Why would someone choose suicide?' I discuss the profound role that emotional pain, feeling unseen, and a lack of connection can play in driving such decisions. By examining these underlying factors, I aim to foster greater understanding and empathy around this sensitive issue. Join me as I share insights and reflections that encourage us to approach this topic with compassion and openness.

Key Takeaway: Emotional pain often stems from unmet
needs for love, connection, and belonging, highlighting the critical distinction between emotional health and mental health in understanding and supporting those who may be struggling with suicidal thoughts and other extreme behaviors, both destructive and constructive.

Peace. Love. Connect.
