Podcast Episode – Mental Health Issues and Suicide
Today’s guest on the podcast, Finding God in Our Pain is Michele Poe (aka Meiche–pronounced Meesh). She is a Christian who struggles with mental health issues and she attempted suicide in 2016. Her desire to reach and encourage people who live with these issues is apparent in her passion to share what it’s like to continue the fight for 20+ years.
Meiche does not try to paint a simple solution for those who suffer with mental illness. She’s completely honest about purposeful choices and individual strategies.
Mental illness can feel like an illusive abuser. You know it’s there but everything you try does not seem to bring lasting results. Which is why, for me, the strongest impression about Meiche Poe is that she has the heart of of a lioness. She has never given up.
If you feel you’re fighting an intangible enemy or know someone who feels that way, take the time to listen to the journey Meiche has been on. Be encouraged as you hear that since her suicide attempt, she’s now enjoying her best quality of life to date.
