Promises Broken: Child and Adolescent Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781495332630)

In this student edition: For Kids and Adolescents (and Parents) Lessons, observations, experience, memories, CIS debriefings and much more led to the writings found here. Written as it was over a period of four and a half years - it is succinct, frank and honest - hard-hitting and direct to the point. No flowery words or baby talk - matter-of-fact and straight-forward, as it is in the experience of the author. The idea is to share in the hope that someone will find it of value, and save themselves or another. A book of Hope and Learning for despondent kids, adolescents and parents. This book covers suicide, bullying, physical and sexual abuse, long term and short term depression, mental health, recovery, attitudes, sudden unexpected death, feelings, talking, resources, education, disorders and much more. The articles about mental and physical abuse and survival remain and are reorganized by topic and the Table of Contents changed and updated. An Index has been created and added. Two articles have been added for this book edition which include a long article about Anticipation Anxiety. The Table of Contents include; Hope, Bullying, Anxiety, Suicide, sexual abuse, Promises Broken, Mental Health, Death, Critical Thinking... The information in this book may save your life, or the life of someone you know and can help. Not only are problems identified, possible solutions are presented as well. This is not a how-to book. It is simply my experience and knowledge passed along to you. What you do or don't do is up to you. I have presented what I hope are options you may not have thought of yet, therefore giving you some time to think and act for positive thought and action. From About the Author: He doesn't have all the answers. However in many cases, he can help you find your answer or path. In memory of Jamie Hubley, who said this before he died, "You cant break. . . When you're already broken.". However I believe you can be helped and repaired", like a broken bone. Help those who want to help you, help you. Disclaimer: There are no guarantees in life. Most of what you read here is from personal experience or knowledge. Some of the experiences were gained without asking and with much mental anguish. Please consider these entries (typos included) as stories that help illustrate a point of view. You are responsible for you. No one else is. If you try something you learned from reading this book. Great, you tried - feel good! If it didn't work for you, then try something else or a variation. Don't blame the author for just trying to help by sharing. There are no diagnoses per se here, just blunt, honest truth as the author sees it - after a lifetime of seeing, knowing, caring, experiencing and living it. This is not a self-help book. It is a book of experience and insight. The author hopes something you read here will resonate with you and therefore help you in a very positive way. We want to keep you in the here and now, and alive and well again. There is no telling what impact you will make as you live, only time will tell. Let's try - and make a difference! You may be the key - for positive outcomes for many other people. By example perhaps?
