Perhaps you\u2019ve lost someone to suicide and\/or drug overdose. Maybe you\u2019ve seen it from a distance and just want to help but don\u2019t know where to start. It could even be that you\u2019ve been through some traumatic situations personally and want to learn more to help yourself and others.<\/p>\n<p>If you are reading this book and at any time discover that you may need outside help but aren\u2019t for sure, please go to Chapter 7 and see what you might need to do in this moment.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel that you are in danger from self-harm and need someone to talk to, please call *988. There are people available to talk to you immediately.<br \/>\nIf your life is in danger or you have a medical emergency, please call *911.<\/p>\n<p>Your life matters and no matter what you\u2019re going through right now, we need you here on this earth. Don\u2019t make a permanent decision in a temporary storm. Let the storm pass over first, talk to someone, if necessary, to get through it in order to be able to make a better decision to help you go on with your life. Life changes every day. Some days are full of rain and some are full of sunshine, both mentally, physically, and in circumstances in the world around us. Keep going! Storms are temporary and eventually go away or fade!<\/p>\n<p>Whatever your reason for reading this book, Thank You! Together we can break the Stigma of Mental Health, get more people talking about it, and help those who are desperate find the help they need. This helps make it easier to have discussions without people feeling shame or repercussions if they choose to share some delicate information.<\/p>\n<p>I have written this book from a Christian perspective and from personal experience with concussions, brain injuries, trauma, a dangerous 8mm cerebral aneurysm, 3 tonic clonic seizures, fractured vertebrae and more. I have been around many medical and mental health professionals and have also had to personally interact with them in my personal medical and mental journeys. I ask that you keep an open mind as you read, take what you want from it, and perhaps put the things you question on a back burner and see what happens in your journey. We must remain teachable on this journey of life so that we can live our lives to the fullest and make the best possible decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your interest in helping us make our world a better place to live and navigate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Joseph James<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>PLEASE NOTE: The information provided in this book is for general informational purposes only.
