NAPAC

ALT Text reads 'Childhood abuse and suicide'

ALT Text reads 'Regrettably, if trauma is internalised or ignored following childhood abuse, it can lead to lifelong emotional and physical issues.' 'Studies have also found that there is a direct correlation between women who suffer from suicidal ideation and women with a history of childhood abuse, and, as these women age, they are three times more likely to attempt suicide.'

ALT Text reads '"At NAPAC, we believe in the power of empathy and the strength that comes from sharing your experiences. Talking openly about difficult topics like suicide and childhood abuse is crucial because silence allows shame and guilt to flourish. By breaking the silence, we can confront these feelings and realise that we are never alone. Together, we can create an environment where hope and healing thrive."' 'Gabrielle Shaw, Chief Executive of NAPAC'
