Book Description
He wrote this book for all those who suffer from the same addictions and mental afflictions he and his family endured. Despite all his pain, Kevin never lost his faith. He wanted all of you who endured the same pain that he did to understand what many people struggle with in their daily lives. He urged you to speak up so that our society would be understanding to those in misery and to understand and to find help, in any way you can, for them. Kevin’s message to you who are suffering was to seek help for yourself and your loved ones and realize that suicide hurts everyone: wives, children, parents, extended families, and even those whom you never met. He wanted you to also reach out to God every moment of every day. He wanted you to know that you are loved and that there can be help for you. Kevin’s desire was that all those who suffer and read this book would be educated about these afflictions and realize they are understood and loved so that they need never be alone again. This book could be a miracle for yourself or someone you love. Kevin was like a son to me. I loved him. I wish I could have helped save him.

Book Description
I had no reason to question the life I was living. I did everything I was supposed to do to live an amazing life - great education, great career, married, mother, home-owner, nice-car owner, fancy vacation taker - or so I thought. I was just rushing to cross things off my to-do list one after another, never stopping to ask myself if all this doing was making me happy. None of my checklists said find joy, be fulfilled, authentically align with my soul. But then through a series of serendipitous circumstances, perfectly orchestrated by the Universe, it all came crashing in on me. I was forced to realize that none of the life I created made me happy. My life was amazing on the outside. But on the inside, I longed for something deeper, meaningful, more. So, I scheduled a breakdown.Hello Universe, It's Me is not just my wakeup call. It's yours too. I take you on my journey but as I do I provide you with the tools you need to see that your story matters, the way you navigate your life matters, and finding who you are meant to be and what you are meant to offer this world matters too.

An engrossing memoir-meets-investigative report that takes a fresh, frank look at how we treat depression Depression is a havoc-wreaking illness that masquerades as personal failing and hijacks your life. After a major suicide attempt in her early twenties, Anna Mehler Paperny resolved to put her reporter’s skills to use to get to know her enemy, setting off on a journey to understand her condition, the dizzying array of medical treatments on offer, and a medical profession in search of answers. Charting the way depression wrecks so many lives, she maps competing schools of therapy, pharmacology, cutting-edge medicine, the pill-popping pitfalls of long-term treatment, the glaring unknowns and the institutional shortcomings that both patients and practitioners are up against. She interviews leading medical experts across the US and Canada, from psychiatrists to neurologists, brain-mapping pioneers to family practitioners, and others dabbling in strange hypotheses—and shares compassionate conversations with fellow sufferers. Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me tracks Anna’s quest for knowledge and her desire to get well. Impeccably reported, it is a profoundly compelling story about the human spirit and the myriad ways we treat (and fail to treat) the disease that accounts for more years swallowed up by disability than any other in the world.
