DISCLAIMER: I discuss suicide in depth here, so if you are struggling with mental health, this video isn't for you. I've put some resources below if you need it.
In today's episode, I discuss the legacy of 13 Reasons Why. Everyone talks about the negative stuff, but I think there were some positive things as well. I hope this video can help you understand the way we consume media and learn a bit about mental health awareness.
