[Content Warning: Suicide]
Krystal* lost her grandmother to suicide. For years, the tragedy left her questioning everything: why it happened, and what more she could have done. Though she’s finally found peace today, grief has a way of sticking to the memories that matter most.
But Krystal’s story also opens up a difficult conversation: Have we truly reckoned with the rise in elderly suicides in Singapore? Senior principal psychologist Dr. Huang Wanping unpacks the complex layers of mental health struggles that our elderly often face in silence.
