Season premier. In 2007, suicide was the tenth-leading cause of death in the U.S., but it can be prevented if you know the warning signs. Our panel of experts have insight for anyone struggling with suicidal thoughts – from teens to the elderly and military veterans. A Spokane woman shares her battle with depression and suicidal thoughts.

This series focuses on health topics of great importance to our viewers and specific populations in our service region.
