Prologue

Hope amid Heartache

Future, depression, hope, and suicide.

We rarely see those words strung together as if they belong next to each other.

We know how the words depression and suicide are linked, signifying serious problems in a persons life.

And we know that hope and future fit together well, indicating the confidence to look forward with optimism.

I believe all of these words do intersect in a significant way: for people struggling with depression and related issueseven to the point of contemplating suicidethere is indeed a future and a hope. I wouldnt have written this book if I didnt believe with my whole heart that everyone has so much to live for.
