Josiah was nineteen with the world at his feet when things changed. Without warning, the new university studentβs mental health deteriorated to the point that he planned his own death. His mother, bestselling author Amanda Prowse, found herself grappling for ways to help him, with no clear sense of where that could be found. This is the book they wish had been there for them during those dark times. Josiahβs situation is not unusual: the statistics on student mental health are terrifying. And he was not the only one suffering; his family was also hijacked by his illness, watching him struggle and fearing the day he might succeed in taking his life. In this book, Josiah and Amanda hope to give a voice to those who suffer, and to show them that help can be found. It is Josiahβs raw, at times bleak, sometimes humorous, but always honest account of what it is like to live with depression. It is Amandaβs heart-rending account of her pain at watching him suffer, speaking from the heart about a motherβs love for her child. For anyone with depression and anyone who loves someone with depression, Amanda and Josiah have a clear messageβyou are not alone, and there is hope.
