Depressed and suicidal, Helen was admitted to a psychiatric ward and sectioned under the Mental Health Act. At her lowest, she almost succeeded in taking her own life. But somehow, she endured and later, she recovered.
Love Lay Down Beside Me And We Wept sprang from these emotionally shattering experiences. Amid the horror though, there were moments of pure comedy and unexpected comradeship. And of course, plenty of material for writing.
This is a profoundly moving and masterful account of one woman's physical and psychological catastrophe. It's a tribute to the love that supported her through it, and it's an offering to the reader who might find comfort or understanding in this story.
No question, we have a lot to worry about. Children, jobs, homes,
health, finances, and more. The solution isn't to rid ourselves of
the sources of anxiety--as if we could. Instead, we need to
recognize that anxiety originates from a spiritual influence and
that we can fight back using the God-given weapons of power, love,
and a sound mind. Sharing her own story of emerging from the battle
with anxiety, as well as the stories of others, Dr. Michelle
Bengtson reminds you of your identity as a follower of Christ and
of the peace he promises you in spite of everything. She provides
tools to cope with the crushing emotional burden of anxiety now
and, more importantly, shows you how to reclaim God's peace as a
way of life so that you can break anxiety's grip.
Die dood van ’n geliefde bring intense hartseer mee. Dr. Henk Gous deel

asook sy persoonlike ervaring met die verlies van sy dogter. Hy is

moeilike pad van rousmart te begelei. Elkeen van die 40 dagstukkies het
plek om jou eie emosies, vrae aan God, ondraaglike pyn, selfs woede, en
enige ander gedagtes neer te skryf. So sal hierdie boekie ’n joernaal
wees van jou uniek persoonlike reis na aanvaarding, vertroosting, vrede
en vreugde.
Ervaar God se troos en liefde sodat jy uiteindelik weer met vreugde kan
leef totdat jy jou geliefdes eendag weer sien.
I have both dyslexia and dyspraxia. I have decided to write this,
probably a little too late as there is some great information out
there but maybe I have a little bit of a different look on things.

The worst thing that a parent can ever go through is the loss of a
child. The pain, the emptiness, the guilt and the sadness that you
feel, is like no other. Does it get any easier? Yes, it does. Will
your heart ever mend? Yes, it will. But it does take time to heal.
Jenny lost her little girl twenty-eight years ago - a long time.
But had she healed? Not as much as she thought. That was until she
decided to write this book and share her story with the world. "I'm
sharing this heartbreaking time of my life to let other parents
know that it's okay to feel the way they do. I want to let people
know that talking about their feelings, their sorrow, their
worries, their pain - but also their joy, could help them to grieve
and be more at peace with themselves and the world around them -
just like I have!" - Jenny Ford This book supports Child
Bereavement UK by making a donation from every book sold. Please
help Jenny to support this worthy cause.
Have you lost somebody close to you? This book can help you to deal
with loss, grief and bereavement. "It's important to remember that
everyone's journey of grief is personal and individual. However,
there are similarities for everyone in the process of grief. My aim
is to help everyone to understand that there really is some light
at the end of the tunnel, and to help them on their journey towards
it." The Grief Garden Path is easy to read, with plenty of
practical advice, which you can dip into whenever you have time.
Chapters include information about the 'grief path', and outlining
the types of grief you might experience. You'll find simple
exercises you can follow to help you going forward, with tips to
help you feel better, even on your worst days. And you'll be able
to share personal stories from people who have experienced the loss
of people very close to them, including their own tips on how to
cope with grief. At a time when you might not feel able to join a
group in order to share your own feelings, we are sure that you
will find it inspirational to hear about how others have coped with
the pain of losing a loved one. Julie New is always happy to hear
from anyone who is struggling to overcome personal setbacks. You'll
