Prevent Suicide: the Smart Way: Transformative Empowering Processes Provide a Better Way to Prevent Suicide Jeanine Joy

Publisher Marketing: Suicide prevention efforts are aimed at identifying individuals at (or near) a crisis and attempting to stop an outcome for which momentum has already built to a point where significant psychological pain is the best expected outcome and death is the worst case outcome (unless you want to include the murder/suicide scenario) with its attendant outcomes. This is not good enough. It is far from the best we can do. Primary Prevention is where suicide prevention efforts should focus the majority of the resources. Primary Prevention aims to avoid any of the negative outcomes by avoiding the situation(s) that lead to them altogether. Examples of Primary Prevention include such things as washing ones hands to prevent the spread of illness and disease, clean drinking water and sanitary facilities to prevent the spread of disease, and vaccinations to prevent the spread of dread diseases. Primary Prevention is superior to crisis prevention because it takes fewer resources to do primary prevention than it does to attempt to stop something that has already begun its journey. I can stop a car from rolling down the hill from a stationary position by placing a single brick under the tire. I cannot stop a car moving at even 25 mph with that same brick. It would take a wall of bricks to stop a car. One of the key reasons individuals begin considering suicide is a lack of resilience. Building a more resilient population would greatly reduce the number of attempted and completed suicides annually. Increased resilience also benefits many other areas of life so while minimum efforts are required to prevent suicide using Primary Prevention, the benefits extend into many other areas of life. They include improved overall health, relationships, and success. "Prevent Suicide: The Smart Way" provides a cost effective method of building resilience as a suicide prevention strategy that is highly affordable and can be taught at any age. Individuals who have learned the strategy and applied it in their own lives can also apply it to a situation (their own or another's) should they encounter a crisis situation. The techniques, used by someone who uses them, have successfully thwarted individuals who were on the brink of suicide from completion of their plans. The techniques provided go well beyond typically recommended dose dependent stress reduction methods--getting at the real heart of stress and unhappiness. The techniques are so powerful that the author provides a money back guarantee on her classes where she teaches them. Anyone who can learn from a book can learn enough to improve their life significantly using the information held in these pages.
