Could My Kid Be Suicidal? What to Do and Say. A Personal Story with AnneMoss Rogers
Hi, friends; welcome to the show.
I'm so glad that you're here. Mental health and emotional wellness is something that we all want for our kids. And if our kids are struggling, if they're going through a tough time, if they're spending a lot of time in their bedrooms, and they're sad, and they are isolated and they're lonely, or you have a kid that is struggling with depression or anxiety or substance abuse.
It's heartbreaking. You feel powerless and confused; it's scary.
And the big question is, what do you do? That's what we ask ourselves. What do we do? Well, my special guest today is AnneMoss Rogers is here with answers.
In this interview, AnneMoss bravely shares her heartbreaking journey of losing her son Charles to suicide. She opens up about the challenges leading up to his tragic passing, her struggles to support him through addiction, and what she would have done differently If only she'd known at the time.
AnneMoss is a dynamic mental health advocate, educator, and speaker. She is a TEDx speaker, and her blog, Emotionally Naked, has reached millions. She is the author of the award-winning memoir Diary of a Broken Mind and the best-selling book Emotionally Naked: A Teacher’s Guide to Preventing Suicide and Recognizing Students at Risk with co-writer Dr. Kimberly O’Brien.
