A proposito di questo titolo

There is a growing epidemic of youth suicide in our culture, and everyone seems either to claim to have pinpointed the cause, or has no idea what to attribute it to.  The statistics of its rise are clear, however, so it's high time we started speaking our stories about suicide and suicidal ideation to try to bring those numbers down.  Mark's older son, Nathan -- who was diagnosed with bipolar type 2 as a teenager -- joins the program to talk about his battles with thoughts of ending his life as early as middle school, including how often those thoughts occurred, how two of his friends' deaths affected his own contemplation of mortality, and what ultimately stopped him from following through on his impulses. These are difficult conversations.  We need to have them, anyway.
