Adam O’Brien tells the story of losing his brother Eoin to suicide. He’s raising funds for Pieta House to mark his brother’s 30th birthday. All funds raised from this gig with go to Pieta House who do amazing work helping people who are suicidal, those self-harming and those bereaved by suicide.
Please note this video contains descriptions of a personal account of living through the death by suicide of a family member and may be upsetting for some people.
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do but I’ve told my mental health story and experience with suicide in my family. Hopefully it will help more people to talk and keep the conversation going.
