The Sufferings of an Immigrant Girl Named Maheen, Part Two

 

Trigger Warning:

Maheen speaks on the experience of self-harming, as well the methods she used. Maheen also speaks on suicidal ideation, as well as her previous suicide attempt. If you have been witnessing another, or are yourself suffering depression, engaging in self-harm, and/or suicidal ideation, please see the list of resources and aids below -- you are not alone.

Continuing from part one, Maheen speaks on:

  • The experience in the hospital ward for suicidal youth
  • How she would approach herself as a woman offering aid to a youth with suicidal tendencies
  • How family and friends have reacted/would react to her story
  • Plus much more

    It has been a huge honor to have Maheen and I'd like to once again express my gratitude for having her on.
