| Publisher Description: My son ultimately lost his battle with depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. The mental health system we turned to time and time again was too broken to see the trauma that had started him on this dark journey and instead filled him with pills. When he was gone I attempted to take my life, and the mental health system imprisoned me.Broken is the story of my son, of me, and of a broken mental health care system that leads to broken lives and broken hearts. The anecdotal evidence in the stories of my son and of me is reinforced with research, statistics and quotes revealing just where the problems are. Broken is my attempt to do more than just grieve for my son. It is an attempt to help people who are dealing with their own mental health problems and especially those who are trying to help their children deal with their problems.Ultimately it is up to you to decide that change is needed, either for yourself, your loved ones, or for others. |
