September is Suicide Prevention Month — a time to raise awareness, break the stigma, and bring hope to those who may be struggling in silence. In this powerful episode of Vital Voices, host Alexis Burrows sits down with Dr. Davina Knowles-Robinson and Dr. Tameka Johnson-Dames, two leading psychiatrists from Oaktree Medical Center, to discuss the realities of suicide and the pathways to prevention. Together, they unpack: - Global and Bahamian suicide statistics - The key risk factors and warning signs to look out for - Why men and women experience suicide differently - The rising concern of suicide among youth - Mental illnesses most associated with suicidal tendencies - How stigma impacts help-seeking behavior - The complementary roles of faith, the church, and medicine in saving lives This episode is both eye-opening and life-affirming. Whether you are seeking help, supporting a loved one, or simply want to understand more about mental health, this conversation will equip you with knowledge and hope. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a mental health professional immediately. You are not alone, and help is available.
