I got here via Piata’s restack (thank you Piata!) and I (having lost my son to suicide) so agree with everything you say Danielle. Thank you for posting
Thanks for recommending, Piata. Welcome - My deepest condolences on the passing of your son. I lived in Indonesia for five years and I love what they say and I think it applies here - "Turut berduka cita," I follow in your pain/suffering. <3 It's a loss unlike another; I don't have children and I can't imagine that loss of a child.
Suicide impacts everyone as it’s the number one cause of death in many age categories, isn’t it? It’s a symptom of a whole societal approach and we’re living with chronic stress and prioritising stuff over wellbeing.
Our leaders are leading from an anxious nervous state where they think that power and wealth make people feel safe. But they are misled. It’s connection, community and compassion that offer safety.
Thank you for writing about this. We need to come together and write, challenge and offer an alternative way of living ❤️🩹
