Default A Reason to Live

A Reason to Live is a practical handbook for people who may be struggling to find a way, or a reason, to live.
It's for people who don't want to be here.
It's for people who don't consider suicide an option but wish they were dead.
It's for people considering suicide as an option and wondering if they should stick around.
It's for people who don't want to kill themselves but get trapped in suicidal thinking, or attempts, anyway.
And it's for people who want to kill themselves but wish someone could give them a reason to live.
It's also for people trying to help someone else - someone they know, love, or care about - a reason not to die and hope for life.

The book is a collection of articles written by authors across the nation. Some of these authors are professionals who counsel or help people haunted by the idea of suicide; some are people who have grappled with the idea personally. The alternatives to suicide are ideas that have worked either for them, or for people they know, or for their clients.

The reasons to live come from their hearts.

The author is Melody Beattie

It's in paperback Lonely1 and I hope you won't reject it instantly.
