The Just A Mom Podcast

Jamie’s son called the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and it saved his life.

Show Notes

Jamie and I were connected by a mutual friend five years ago when Jamie’s son entered an inpatient mental health hospital. Jamie was quickly trying to figure out next steps after his release. I’ve kept in touch with Jamie over the years and am glad to report her son is doing well and managing his mental illness successfully.

In this episode, Jamie references her son’s call to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (988) and how it saved his life. If you or anyone you know needs help, please call 988. Remember, you don’t have to wait until it’s “crisis enough” to call.
