Friends and family gathered. Flowers everywhere. The casket. Days that just melt into each other. Sleepless nights. The pain in the pit of your stomach. Feeling all alone. I wrote this book because I remembered how hard it was when I lost my mother. That first holiday was the absolute worst. I ached as I imagined everyone being with their families, and yet, we sat with her empty chair. I just didn’t want anyone to feel as alone as I felt. With each loss, I found myself experiencing the same cycle of emotions.

This is a book about who I was and who I am. About pain and depression and suicide and regrowth. It's about hope and living a future you didn't expect to live. More specifically, it is about my suicide attempt in 2019, after years of struggling with alcoholism, depression, and self-harm. It's about my second chance and making it all that it can be. It uses my writing from before my attempt and after my attempt to compare how I changed and my views of life.
