Show Notes

Suicide is the highest cause of death for young people in Europe.

It has increased in women under 20, though men are more than 3 times more likely to die by suicide than women…

So what’s causing it? And what can we do to help more?

Joining guest host Mairead Ronan to discuss is Dr Patricia Byrne, Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, Chris Sherlock, Author, Mental Health Advocate and Antibullying Campaigner and listener Millie.

If any of these issues have affected you, you can phone the Samaritans on 116 123.
