The Old Southern Black Folk's Dictionary showcases and defines
words and phases specific to the Southern vernacular of the
author's family. The author uses humor in a dictionary format to
bring this "language" to her readers.
Throughout the years of my life, I have endured immense emotional
pain and suffering. I have been diagnosed with 'major depression',
accompanied with severe anxiety, panic, followed by OCD. All simply
labels. I have loved and lost many to suicide and this book is in
some ways a continuation from 'Suicide is Not a Dirty Word', of my
life's journey'. It tells true stories of child abuse, incest,
intensive care and still birth. It touches on subjects such as
stigma, suicide, euthanasia and mental illness. I have written of
contact with loved ones already passed and how their messages have
saved lives. I believe and with good reason in soul mates and
beyond and in the pages here the stories will explain why. Most of
all, I hope that 'Heaven Hell & Here' will tell the world, that
no matter how bad things seem and no matter how deeply depressed we
are and providing we have our health, there will always be a
better, brighter day.
Australian author Denise Robinson is familiar with the word
suicide. She experienced first-hand, the sad loss of immediate
family members and friends. When people that close to you decide to
end their own lives it is sure to have a profound impact at that
very moment in one's life and for the remaining years thereafter.
Denise Robinson decided to highlight, that indeed, suicide is not a
dirty word. In fact, it is a decision made by people who are so
advanced in their choosing of their own destiny that often times
the ones left behind find it traumatizing to comprehend. Many
unanswered questions often ring, "Why take their own life? What
drove them? How could they do it?" All-too-common questions are
often asked after the aftermath but very rarely does anyone - who
has not suffered from severe depression - fully understand the
reasons before that fateful decision; that decision that ends the
pain for the sufferer but leaves the remaining loved ones baffled
and confused for years to come. The author points out with this
clear and distinct draft that no matter who you are or where you
are; we are all vulnerable and all capable of falling into depths
of depression. It has the ability to escape no-one. It is like a
cancer that can spread; spread so far that there is almost a point
of no return. Denise Robinson's experience; clearly very harrowing,
can be a source of help and perhaps a means of comfort for anyone
suffering and might just help to end the stigma of depression and
highlight that suicide, is indeed, not a dirty word.
