Summary

TW: suicide, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, substance abuse If you or someone you know is at risk of suicide, please call the Lifeline: 988 When your hosts first started this podcast, they knew they wanted to have today’s guests on the show. Harlie and Robin Monroe, sister and mother of Tay’s high school friend Jared, join the Lautners today to discuss the heartbreaking events that led to Jared taking his life and their foundation, The Jared Monroe Foundation, which supports students with bipolar disorder. They go back to the very beginning, when the family adopted Jared, discuss his marijuana use, which acted as a major trigger for his diagnosis, and share details on the various manic episodes he endured. They talk about their unique grief journeys, the importance of having a community around you, and offer words of encouragement to Tay, saying just how proud her friend Jared would be of what she’s doing today.
