EP10 Ed Paluch: Navigating the Grief of Both of His Brothers' Suicides

  • Summary

  • How does the devastating loss of not one, but two siblings to suicide change a person? It's a question that no one ever wants to face but is the heartbreaking reality for our guest, Ed Paluch. Ed bravely opens up about the tragic passing of his 2 younger brothers, Greg and Andrew, and the profound impact their loss had on his life and his mother's. With raw emotion, he shares about Greg's battle with depression, Andrew's struggle with mental illness, and his mother's indescribable pain. As we remember Greg, his infectious laughter and physical humor bring a poignant reminder of the vibrant lives behind the statistical face of suicide.

    Suicide's ripple effect is far-reaching, altering connections and dynamics in unexpected ways. Hear Ed's insights on how Greg's death affected his bond with his remaining brother Andrew and triggered his active involvement in suicide prevention initiatives. We also examine the double-edged sword of social media and the urgent need for improving mental health resources for today's youth. In the midst of grief, Ed's reflections are a wake-up call to the importance of awareness and intervention in mental health issues. Join us for this deeply personal journey that underscores the enduring presence of those we lose and their continuous shaping of our lives.
