About this item

"I want to die.” That heart-stopping statement is as vivid today as it was when it first came out of my daughter’s mouth. Then my second daughter said it. Then my third. Over the course of four years, all three of my girls fought severe depression and suicidal thoughts. Calls to crisis centers, empty pill bottles, frantic trips to the ER, and goodbye letters all became painful parts of our family’s life. No one plans for this. I had a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I’d tutored children in a psychiatric ward and worked as a live-in counselor for emotionally disturbed boys. I’d been an elementary school teacher and read all the parenting books. How could I have missed the signs in my own kids? I felt blindsided. Naïve. I understand what it’s like to be a parent who’s struggling to keep your sanity while fighting to keep your child alive. Today, my daughters are on the road to healing and living happier lives. But we faced a harrowing journey. This book is a unique blend of memoir, advice, encouragement, and self-reflection journaling prompts. My daughters also share their lessons of survival and what they’ve learned along the way. Together, we offer you the insights and resources you need to stay strong while supporting your child’s mental health and happiness.
