© 2023 The Silent Suicide
Description
This podcast is dedicated to my dear friend Melanie who committed suicide in July 2022. In April 2022, I started a nonprofit organization called Rise and Shine Foundation to help eliminate the negative stigma surrounding mental health issues. This podcast will have weekly episodes discussing various issues on the topic including anxiety, depression, suicide, life experiences, sharing stories, etc. I am by no means an expert, I'm just someone with a loving heart who genuinely cares about people. In the near future, I will have guest speakers, and my listeners will be able to call in and tell their stories as well. I am determined to reach out and help those who are struggling. Life is hard, but it is worth it. BEING DIFFERENT MAKES YOU SPECIAL!!

This week is a mini episode talking all about paranoia. A condition that is actually a symptom of different mental health illnesses. It is often difficult to diagnose and pinpoint the underlying condition. Although common to experience paranoid thoughts from time to time, when it is prolonged is when it can turn into an illness.

I found this podcast because I want to die and my friends are sick of hearing it. I've deleted all my social media, closed all my IMs, and I've calculated the drop for my hanging.
