Living Ideation: A New Approach to Suicide Prevention and Intervention
Description
“Did you really want to die?"
"No one commits suicide because they want to die."
"Then why do they do it?"
"Because they want to stop the pain.”
― Tiffanie DeBartolo, How to Kill a Rock Star
There are many misconceptions floating around now surrounding suicide. I even subscribed to some of them at the beginning of this podcast journey, out of my own grief and misunderstanding.
Today, we flip some of those narratives on their heads with Dr. Steven Nicholas, Ed. D, MFT, NCC. Dr. Steve is taking an innovative approach to those seeking to end the pain by showing us that connection could be the key to keeping those who want to end the pain from dying by suicide. He details this idea (and more) in his new book "Living Ideation: A New Approach to Suicide Prevention and Intervention".
You can find Dr. Steve's book at most major book retailers, including Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1736488902/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_glt_fabc_EY6PE6XH1GXRZKD5DG9T.
