If you've experienced thoughts of suicide, then you've had "suicidal ideation." These thoughts can be active or passive. I share some information about these thoughts today on the podcast because someone close to me has been feeling this way. I can relate, because I experienced passive suicidal thoughts while being in an emotionally abusive relationship. I take passive suicidal thoughts seriously. To mean it means we may not actively be pursuing completion, but we desperately need help for our mental state. Reaching out to others is the first smart step.
Please make a call if you're experiencing thoughts such as these. In the USA you can dial 988 for mental health help, or simply 911.
I got some of my information from: https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/suicidal-ideation
Healing is possible!
