Southern Remedy Relatively Speaking | Suicide Prevention Month

Host(s): Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram Nanney

Guest(s): Dr. Courtney Walker and Dr. Taylor Perry

Topic: How do we know when someone we love may be struggling with thoughts of suicide? What should you say if someone tells you they're thinking about suicide? And does asking someone directly about suicide actually help—or could it make things worse? This week, clinical psychologists Dr. Courtney Walker and Dr. Taylor Perry take on an important and sometimes difficult conversation about suicide prevention—how to recognize when someone may be struggling, how to ask the question, and what we can do to help. Because sometimes, starting a conversation can be the first step toward getting someone the help they need.
