Episode 91: An Interview with a Suicide Attempt Survivor
Season 4
Episode 27
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
In an incredibly redemptive interview, Jake and Mike sit down with Emon Alexander Mahban, who survived a suicide attempt with a firearm. With the bullet still lodged in his skull, this discussion explores where Emon was mentally during that time, the series of events that led up to the suicide attempt, the events of that night, and where he is in life now.
Emon's story serves both as inspiration and a cautionary tale. Suicide is often so impulsive that no one sees it coming, and yet, the demons lurking beneath the surface can sometimes arise when we least expect it. And still...life is worth living.
