Chase Anderson, MD, MS (K.C. Ardem) 🦸🏽‍♂️🏳️‍🌈

In 2023, I wrote about being a psychiatrist who lived with suicidal ideation and the need for our society to discuss suicidality openly to decrease stigma. In April 2025, I wrote about the framework I used to notify others, create goals to keep me alive, cultivate self-love, and radically accept my suicidality when it arose. In August 2025, I wrote about the framework I use to turn each and every suicidal thought from a seemingly insurmountable force into solvable components. Today, we move forward in my narrative. This time, I write to you all to share the four steps I use to navigate and continue my healing journey in the months after my suicidality goes into remission. Honored to publish in @medpagetoday with my newest piece, “Living After Suicidality: A Physician’s Framework for Healing After Their Suicidality Goes into Remission.” So much love and gratitude to @genevievefri for the stellar edits along with the thoughtfulness and care she put into collaborating on this article.

@ChaseTMAnderson Reading a clinician say this openly really shifts something, the "stay quiet" reflex loses some of its grip

today and always ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Ariana Grande celebrates Trans Day of Visibility in recent Instagram story. “Dear Trans People, the world is a better place with you in it.”

Today is Trans Day of Visibility. Trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming people have always been here — from the hijra of India to the Diné nádleehi to the leaders who built the modern LGBTQIA+ movement here in New York. Your existence is not up for debate. Your lives are not a political issue. We’re fighting for a city where every trans New Yorker can live openly, safely, and with joy.

Happy Tr@ns Day of Visibility! Today is also a tough day for the news. Make sure you’re spending time with people who make you feel loved today. ❤️

@IamCarrieagain They’re so tall and I… am not loooool

@ChaseTMAnderson Bloody hell, how tall are they?! Signed 'A very short woman'

We clean up nice. So much love for @EdwinBrower and Eric getting married and for how they continually show that love can be life-changing. Honored to be a groomsperson for these two superstars. Grateful to be alive to be part of this event with friends who have been family for so many years now.🌙🐦‍🔥💖🦄🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🦸🏽‍♂️✊🏽
