Benjamin Leyland Is The Only One Explaining Why Their Mother’s Suicide Almost Killed Them Too Episode 158

Imagine being so enmeshed with your mother, that you didn’t know where you ended and she began.

Life Coach and writer, Benjamin Leyland, left England and was living in the US when he got the news that his mother had taken her life.

So what would you do if the only way you knew to grieve your mother was to drown yourself in drugs and alcohol? Would you seek out anything that would stop the pain? Or would you get sober and tell all the terrible stories so that others might save themselves too?
