031. Bonus: Mental Illness, Suicidal Thoughts, Suicide Attempt, and God Still Has a Plan for You with Carla Arges from Affirming Truths

🚨🚨Trigger Warning🚨🚨

Today we are talking about a sensitive topic. It’s suicide prevention month; and as a mental health professional, I think it’s important to highlight the topic. If you or someone you know struggle with suicidal thoughts and need help, call the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988. 

To highlight Suicide Awarness/Prevention Month, I have a special guest, Carla Arges, who is here to share her experience and struggles with attempting suicide, suicidal ideation, and mental illness. She will also share her testimony of how, through all of this, she is still able to live a life that brings glory to God.

A little about Carla. She is a daughter of the King, a wife, mom, and host of the podcast Affirming Truths. She is also an encourager and mental health warrior!

If you are someone who attempted suicide and/or deals with suicidal ideation, I believe you will be encouraged by this episode as Carla gets really raw and vulnerable about her life. You are not alone in this!
