EP 15: How Can We Reach Out When Someone Is Struggling? | Your Millennial Psychologist

Description

Some conversations are difficult to have, but that doesn’t mean we should avoid them. Sometimes, simply knowing that someone is willing to listen can make a person feel a little less alone.This September, for Suicide Prevention Month, we take a moment to talk about suicide, suicidal thoughts, and the people who may be silently carrying more than we realize.In this episode, we sit down with Riyan Portuguez, also known as Your Millennial Psychologist, to understand how we can recognize when someone may be struggling, how to approach difficult conversations with compassion, and how we can support someone without making them feel ashamed or guilty for what they’re going through.Because we may not always know exactly what someone needs or have the perfect words to say. But sometimes, showing up, listening without judgment, and helping someone find the right support can remind them that they don’t have to face their pain alone ; __We all see life through different perspectives, and Life Loading is our way of sharing stories and conversations that help fill in those gaps. The practical things, the emotional things, and the questions we’re all quietly trying to figure out.Please keep in mind that this podcast is not professional advice, and individual experiences may vary.#LifeLoading #RicaPeralejo #YourMillennialPsychologist
