Description
Nick, a kindhearted nineteen-year-old, walked from his college campus to a tall bridge and jumped into the Mississippi. The lost body, the subsequent jumpers...suddenly the unthinkable became unfathomable. Linda Pacha takes you on a powerful journey through her son's heartbreaking life story - including ongoing bullying, not fitting in, and ultimately suffering from mental health issues - as well as her family's grief process, offering guidance to save others from suicide and help those grieving in the aftermath of loss. Her hope is that you will benefit from these insights gained from hindsight to help yourself, your family, or your friends. SUICIDE PREVENTION - Access to real-life examples of suicide warning signs missed in Nick's last behaviors and communications; discussion of mental health issues as a risk factor; an inside look at private challenges and bullying; and ways to help those struggling to stay alive. SELF-HELP/GRIEF AFTER LOSS - Recommendations on navigating the grief process, including the challenging steps back into society, new family dynamics, and necessary choices after loss; explanation of the stigma, judgment, and misconceptions of mental health and suicide; and ways to help loss survivors. TIPS FOR A BETTER TOMORROW - Practical suggestions for reducing the pressure we put on ourselves and our youth and for creating a more compassionate world.
