In a time when support for mental health is very much needed, Yusra and Lauren have chosen to discuss a more serious topic on the podcast that focuses on the surprising effect of mentioning and reacting to suic*des in the media.  They also talk about how this effect relates to mass sh*otings, recommendations by the World Health Organization for reporting on suic*des and mass sh*otings, and how social media can contribute to the effect.
