No Feeling Is Final

48

Usually when we talk about suicide we say those four magic words: "just ask for help". But Honor Eastly knows it's not that simple. She's been there and back, and now has years of phone recordings and diary entries, from the inside.These recordings form the basis of this podcast, No Feeling Is Final.This is a show for anyone who's ever wondered if life is worth living. And for anyone trying to better understand their friend, partner or kid, who's wrestled with these feelings themselves. At times heartbreaking, and desperate — but also darkly funny, and charming, No Feeling Is Final is a story of difference, identity, and why we should stay aliveJust a heads up, this show touches on some heavy lifting feelings territory — including what's it's like to feel so hopeless that you want to die. It's not graphic — it's not that kind of show. But there is some swearing.Also — this is a memoir show. It's about Honor's experience trying to figure out some big stuff. So of course, it's only one person's story.This six-part experimental memoir, No Feeling Is Final was named one of the best podcasts of 2018 by The Atlantic, TIME, and The Financial Times.

    Amazing!
    My son died from depression and this podcast helped me feel less alone. She tells her story so perfectly and describes how difficult it is to get the help that so many desperately need. Thank you for your transparency and for putting yourself out there. I love this podcast.

    Thank you 💜
    Thank you for being the voice for those of us who are unable to effectively communicate the everyday struggle we have with our minds. You’ve been the first person that has made me not feel alone. I’ve always thought that we suffer sometimes so we can grow strong in certain areas and use that strength to help others.
