Content warnings: very extensive discussion of depression, bipolar disorder, and suicidal ideation that culminates in death by suicide. Discussion of the emotional state and inner reasoning leading to death by suicide, as well as its impact on family and friends, is the full content of the episode. This week is very difficult to listen to and we ask that you take extra care choosing whether to engage with this episode. If you need more specific content information to decide if this is safe for you, please reach out and we will help. We love you, ghouls, and you are so important to us.
