Why do you feel like you want to die if you aren't feeling sad? Dr. Sara Kohlbeck joins host Terry McGuire on RECOVERable to explain why suicide isn't always about hopelessness. As the director of the Division of Suicide Research and Healing at the Medical College of Wisconsin, Dr. Kohlbeck shares that these feelings may come from extreme anxiety or anger. You might feel a heavy pressure pushing in on you until you feel completely overwhelmed. It is important to know that sadness is not always part of the equation. By making space for all of these feelings, you can start to find a way out. This episode helps you understand that your experience is valid, even if it doesn't fit the "sad" box society often uses. If you are struggling, please know you are never alone. There is always help available. If the pressure feels like too much today, you can call or text 988. Someone is there to listen, 24/7. #suicideprevention #mentalhealthawareness #thereisasolution

Talking to a parent or partner about your deepest struggles can feel like the scariest thing in the world, especially when you are thinking about ending your life. Dr. Sara Kohlbeck, the director of the Division of Suicide Research and Healing at the Medical College of Wisconsin, joins host Terry McGuire on our latest episode of RECOVERable to share how you can find the words to ask for help. When you are feeling unwell or "in the void," being as direct as possible is often the safest path. While it is tempting to use indirect language, others might not always understand the severity of what you are going through unless you say it clearly. Opening up to someone you trust is a massive first step toward your own healing and empowerment. It may feel overwhelming, but letting them know you trust them with this information can help broach the conversation in a private, supportive space. Remember that recovery is a non-linear process and seeking support is a sign of incredible strength. If you are in immediate need of help or are having thoughts of hurting yourself, please call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline anytime in the US and Canada. #suicideprevention #youarenotalone #thereisasolution #yourmentalhealthmatters
Anyone else climbing out of the pit of despair right now? P.S. I’m brain dumping this & more in the new bonus episode of #TFA available in my Substack (in the link in my bio!) #depression #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness
It’s because that person or people wanted to. How terrible 😢
“I could have a second home for what I’ve spent on therapy.” Twenty years depressed. On medication. Asking, “Why am I so broken?” She wasn’t broken. Her brain had captured trauma and built survival programs around it. She would “go into the pit.” That was her coping mechanism. The feelings felt real. The depression felt real. The reactions felt real. But the root? Stored memories. Internalized experiences. Recordings running automatically. You don’t keep finding the same problems because you’re cursed. You keep finding them because your nervous system is replaying familiar patterns. When we updated the memories, the “pit” lost its power. You are not the problem. The recordings are. Ready to update them? Book a private session. Comment 'PRIVATE SESSION' and I'll send you the details.
Depression is a signal that’s meant to help us pull back and heal. Be patient. Sometimes we’ve had things buried for a real long time that have needed our attention. Recovery is about facing our truth head on and restoring who we were meant to be at our core. #addictionrecovery #depression #healing #recoveryispossible #onedayatatime
