4 Myths About Suicide

Описание: Dr. Julie Goldstein Grumet addresses common myths about suicide, including the misconceptions that asking someone about suicidal thoughts plants the idea in their head, that people talking about suicide are just seeking attention, and that suicide affects only certain demographics. She emphasizes the importance of direct, empathetic conversations about suicide, recognizing various signs of distress, and understanding the gravity of secrets related to suicidal thoughts. Dr. Goldstein Grumet leans on her extensive experience as the Vice President for Suicide Prevention Strategy at the EDC, and Director of the Zero Suicide Institute to educate and equip viewers with the knowledge to better support those in distress.
