The Emotional Man Trailer

GLOBALLY, THERE ARE MORE THAN 1 MILLION DEATHS BY SUICIDE EACH YEAR.

WE HAVE AN EPIDEMIC.

Suicide has become a part of daily conversation. It makes national news when a celebrity takes his or her own life and yet, we still aren’t communicating about it in a way that provides new solutions.

It’s time to face it, embrace it, shine a light on it and start listening to the men, women and children who believe their only choice is to end their life.

Despite the fact that white middle aged men attribute for 7 out of every 10 suicides, suicide among children and adolescents 5-17 years old is at an all-time time. The rate has quadrupled in the past 50 years. The suicide epidemic now transcends all genders all races all levels of affluence and economic status, religion, races countries of origin. The rich and the poor are both impacted by this global epidemic.

HOW WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED?

My son was 17 years when he told me he planned his funeral and intended to end his life within the coming months. A decade later, I experienced my own rock bottom and contemplated ending my own life. We worked through our own experiences with suicide.

And it was my own experience with suicidal thoughts that lead me to create The Emotional Man ~ listening to suicide, a series bringing the conversation of suicide forward with conversations we have with real people who have attempted or been personally impacted by suicide.

LISTEN WITH CURIOSITY, COMPASSION AND LOVE.
