Today my guest, Michael Fabber and I discuss his journey and mission of ending suicide.
This is such an important topic because suicide is way too common. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t know someone who has either attempted suicide or completed suicide.
Michael really breaks this down for us and shares how connection is a key in ending the suicide rates.
Michael shares the musts in order for someone to feel suicidal.
- Feel alone
- Feel like they are a burden
- Be willing to hurt themselves beyond repair
Connection can shift the first two.
Connection can come in several forms:
- Surface
- Casual
- Intimancy
- Love
Michael lost his brother to suicide. He helps run the Joseph Patrick Fabber Memorial Foundation. They provide services to support their mission of “securing a drug and bully-free society while preventing suicide and preserving life.”
