Episode 156 The pain inside, Suicide Awareness & Prevention

This week on ... For the People... law in plain language with Debra D. Rainey, Esq. The Pain within! Suicide Awareness & Prevention When People talk about killing themselves they probably have at the very least thought about it.  Folk who look  for or research ways to kill themselves, or  folks who  make comments about life not being worth  living, are screaming out for help, will you be there for them? Suicide is one of the top leading causes of death  for every age group, gender, and ethnicity.  The FTP FAM dispelled some myths about suicide and discussed risk factors and warning signs for  which loved ones and families must be on guard.  One of our listeners shared his rather narrow/unenlightened view of therapy and its  usefulness & necessity for Black Folks.
