Archived Episode - On Suicidality and Suicidal Ideation

This week, Caitlin Plant, Program Manager at Distress and Crisis Ontario, has been feeling under the weather, so we are re-sharing an old interview. Val Brosseau is a distress line volunteer responder, mental health advocate, and now Board Member of DCO, and in April of 2021 she shared the story of her own mental health journey and struggles with suicidal ideation. She talks about past attempts, her mental health history, and provides encouragement for those who may be feeling the same way.
