Benjamin and Pflüger have curated over 100 voices, some very well known and others not so, who all have lived experience of mental ill health, some who have had thoughts of suicide, some who have attempted suicide and some who have been bereaved by suicide. It goes without saying that these people have been to som very dark places, and it’s just heartbreaking. So readers who have been affected beware.
They have grouped these contributions into different sections including; always hope, acceptance, peace, tool kits, compassion, courage, the right words, inspiration, resilience, kindness and connection. I loved the breadth of contributors in this; there are veterans, clinicians, bankers, athletes, campaigners galore. And they’re all united in their message for anyone suffering mental health challenges - there is always hope and things will get better.
There is a lot in here - this is a resource that readers can nip into (the sections are a great help for this!), to gain someone else’s viewpoint in fighting mental health and getting better. And to see what worked for them - but remember we’re all different and different tools work for different people.
Thank you to all the contributors (including Jonny and Britt) for sharing their deeply personal stories ❤️
