In this episode, I discuss the complicated grief that suicide loss survivors feel. Tom Phillips is my guest & he is the Vice President of the nonprofit organization Suicide Awareness Survivor Support (SASS) . In 2020, there were 48,344 suicides in the United States. SASS believes the public must be educated about suicide. Tom & I discuss the grief that comes with a suicide loss, how to support someone who has experienced a suicide loss, and what steps we can do as a society to prevent suicides.
