If a teen gets to a point where they feel like their life doesn't have a clear purpose and no one is there to listen to them, they can arrive at a very dark place quite quickly. In today's show, Mark talks with two young ladies who struggled with hopelessness and guilt. One reflects on why she turned to self-harm while battling an eating disorder, while the other, a Heartlight alumna, shares her story of surviving a suicide attempt. These stories are honest, emotional and important for all parents to hear!
