In episode 71, Chris and Emma continue their conversation with Dr. Stacey Freedenthal, suicidologist, therapist, author, and professor at the University of Denver.
This second part explores the complexities of chronic suicidality, the stigma surrounding suicide, and how we can better support those in pain. Stacey shares both research and lived experience, offering practical guidance for loved ones and professionals alike.
Topics include:
• Chronic suicidal thoughts and why they may persist for years
• What to say—and what not to say—when someone discloses suicidality
• Why listening deeply matters more than quick fixes or decision trees
• How stigma, secrecy, and shame prevent people from seeking help
• The importance of language: why “died by suicide” is preferred over “committed suicide”
• Stories of compassion, connection, and hope in the darkest moments
Chris and Emma reflect on their own experiences, and Emma shares a powerful story about finding compassion for her younger self. Together with Stacey, they emphasize that support is about presence, authenticity, and listening bravely.
