My word for it
My word for it
Gina
I was once told that some kids have to touch the stove themselves even if their parents warned them it was hot. I guess I'm one of those kids I always think I know best, so I have to go through things to learn...I've learned a lot recently. In December, I hit my lowest point and was admitted into a psychiatric hospital on suicide watch. The first night I was there, I sat awake on the cot wondering how I got to this point. If you're struggling, I'll walk you through what I know now in the hopes that you don't have to experience it firsthand. I'm here to tell you the stove's definitely hot.
Grief: No, I don't know how to let go
My therapist told me that I have a stubborn mind that holds onto everything, and I think that's why I would rather lose my hands than let go. The topic I wanted to talk about first is the idea of grief...if I had to pick out one thing in my life that has most impacted me, it would be this concept. Even though it's abstract and misunderstood, it is something that I've discussed and thought about for long enough. In this explanation, just a forewarning...I know none of the answers. I just compiled some thoughts on what I do know, and we'll go from there.

Introduction: I'm no expert, but here's what I know
This is an introduction to who I am and why I wanted to start a podcast. Before this point, I did not think I had anything that needed to be shared. Even though this is one of the more difficult things to share, it's something that is the most necessary in my opinion.  TW: suicide, mental health
