Descend into Darkness

This book is written purely from my own experience. Everything described within these pages truly happened.Please understand: I am not a doctor psychologist or mental health professional. I m just an ordinary man who struggles through life like so many others. It was these very struggles that compelled me to write for you. Be aware: the content is dark hence the title. I created this book as a form of relief to ease my conscience sharing sensitive information not even my closest family knows. For years I wrestled with whether it was better to keep it all secret.By sharing my story of twelve years suffering from depression I hope to help others better understand the invisible battles their friend parent or child might be fighting battles you may know nothing about because they re too afraid to speak. And believe me I understand. Talking about it is the hardest thing EVER.Everyone faces dark times some deeper than others but we must not let that darkness dictate our lives. In this intense yet ultimately hopeful account I ll be your guide. As we walk through my lowest points I ll share the insights and tools that helped me face my depression. Regaining my mental health has been and remains a long bumpy road. The crucial question is: HOW do we navigate it? If this book helps you even just a little then sharing my story was worth it.
