Why are suicide rates rising even in "dream institutions" like IITs? How do addiction, body shaming, and modern relationships impact Gen Z’s mental health?
In this episode of 42 Podcatcher, we sit down with Sherin Noordheen, founder of "Let’s Live,"
an NGO dedicated to youth suicide prevention in Kerala. We dive deep into the silent struggles of today's youth—from the immense pressure of academic excellence to the unfiltered reality of campus relationships.
Sherin shares her personal story of failing Engineering Graphics and overcoming suicidal thoughts, proving that academic failure is not the end of the road. If you or someone you know is struggling, this conversation could be the light they need.
We discuss early warning signs, how to support survivors without judgment, and how to deal with the guilt left behind.
⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions about suicide, self-harm, and trauma. Viewer discretion is advised.
