All this time! 39 years. Ever since the beginning, people would say to me, “Wow, you should write a book.” They would engage me with questions about what happened. They wanted to know, and they still do. So, BECAUSE SOMEONE WILL ALWAYS ASK…I began one night to write this story that I have known so well. They say that everyone has a book in them. They have a story to tell. I never dreamed that my life story would be able to give hope to someone else. I knew it was amazing that I came back from a horrific injury, and thought it ended there. I have been wrong. People find it inspiring. They say, “that someone needs to hear this.”

An inspiring, interactive book and workbook to help brain injury survivors and caregivers navigate grief and loss, find their strengths and move forward with a changed life.

As a brain injury survivor herself, author Carole Starr knows the depth of grief and loss of self that accompany brain injury, the challenge of coping with symptoms that are misunderstood by many and the peace that can come from accepting a new life and a new self. Carole describes the journey in a way that survivors, caregivers and professionals can relate to and learn from.

Tips and strategies include:

• Recognizing what acceptance is/isn’t and why it’s important for brain injury survivors
• Getting through the challenging first year after brain injury
• Moving past denial
• Coping with the loss of one’s old life and sense of self
• Creating a new life as a brain injury survivor
• Documenting and celebrating progress
• Responding to insensitive comments by others
• Finding something positive in the negative that is brain injury
• Letting go of the past and moving forward

Knowing that many survivors struggle with reading and remembering what they read, Carole made the chapters in To Root & To Rise short. The font size in the print version is larger than average, to improve readability. There are also spaces between each paragraph, to reduce the overwhelmed feeling that can come from looking at too much text.

To Root & To Rise is also a workbook, with optional questions in each chapter that encourage readers to take Carole’s strategies and apply them to their own experience. These questions can be answered on one’s own, with family members, with rehabilitation professionals, or with a brain injury support group.

To Root & To Rise is a unique resource for anyone living with a traumatic brain injury, post-concussion syndrome, stroke, brain tumor or other brain trauma, for family caregivers and friends of brain injury survivors, for brain injury support groups and for medical and neuro-rehabilitation professionals.

Drowning in the Seas of Mental Illness is the autobiography of Bipolar Barbie. It illustrates the struggle of living with chronic mental illness and navigating the waters of a severely inadequate mental health care system. Drowning explains the day by day journey of someone experiencing mental illness for the first time and the gruelling process of getting a diagnosis and learning to live with a disease that kills over 1 million people a year world wide. It is a an inspirational personal memoir that delves deeply into the mind and psychology of a young woman who refuses to give up fighting for the life she deserves.

Bipolar Barbie gives a creative, raw and honest take on living with Type 2 Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Generalised Anxiety Disorder and Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). She documents her journey in the seas of mental illness in a series of short stories signed off by each different Barbie she feels represents the state of her mood at the time.

This book follows her personal journey from the death of her best friends mother and mentor, to the downward spiral she experiences during her second year of law school. She knows her life will never be the same again. She battles homelessness, drug and alcohol abuse, grief and depression all whilst trying to keep her life and career together. She explores her feelings and emotions in imaginative short stories that represent the trials and tribulations someone must overcome to help themselves out of a dark place.

This book dives deep into the real life struggles someone with complex mental illnesses first experiences before being correctly diagnosed. She explores the uncertainty and fear of the unknown future ahead of her in this compelling depiction of her personal struggles that many can relate to. The rollercoaster ride of mania and depression is portrayed through diary entries that chronicle the everyday life of someone suffering from mental illness and the stigma that comes with it.

When asked why she talks about her mental health so openly and honest she simply responds “It never occurred to me not to!” She also believes that talking about the stigma surrounding mental illness is not productive. She does not want to bring attention to the fact that it is normal to shun and stigmatise sufferers of an “invisible illness”. “I want people to know what it is really like to be me and struggle every day to find the will to live. Understanding is the only way to truly obliviate the stigma”

She questions the expectation on young adults to succeed and the neglect to consider the wellbeing of individuals in that equation. Finding the courage to reach out for help is only the first step in reaching that illusive place called recovery. What follows is a gruelling process of therapy, medication and doctors appointments. A undertaking not many understand or could possibly comprehend.

She honours her influencer roots by including photos to accompany each diary entry to represent the often diverse gap between how someone looks and how they really feel.

She metaphorically peels back the skin of her image to reveal the demons and battles she fights within. Wrestling with her mind to gain control of her thoughts. She grapples with the possibility that she will never be normal again.

This book aims to open up the conversation about mental health concerns and help others find the words to describe what they feel in order to promote effective dialogue that just might save someone’s life.

Life as a teenager can feel like getting on a wild roller-coaster ride, not knowing when the next unexpected twist or turn will come. But there’s only so much uncertainty one can take before becoming… sick.

Teens need support now more than ever before to manage the transitions that come with adolescence, but not the kind of support where mom and dad are constantly in their ear!
They are in search of helpful resources that they can pursue on their own, which can provide the appropriate psychological skills to cope with everyday life stressors.
The DBT Workbook for Teens is the perfect resource to help your child, aged 13–19, learn effective stress management techniques at their own pace.
Borrowing from the work of the founder of dialectical behavioral therapy, Dr. Marsha Linehan, the workbook presents four core DBT skills: mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
Each skill promises to teach your child valuable coping strategies: Mindfulness seeks to identify and let go of unwanted thoughts and emotions, emotional regulation teaches how to describe and observe strong emotions without being taken by them, distress tolerance strengthens emotional resilience in the face of challenges, and interpersonal effectiveness promotes self-respect and setting healthy boundaries.
Some of the critical lessons your child will learn include:

• How to break free from cycles of overthinking, and mindfully shift their focus onto the present moment.
• How to self-soothe and de-escalate stressful situations at school or at home through exercises like deep breathing and meditation.
• Steps to recognize, manage, and accept overpowering emotions, and take the opposite action with skills like “ABC PLEASE.”
• How to nurture relationships with effective communication and resolve conflict with skills like “DEAR MAN.”

The aim of this workbook is to teach young people different ways to cope with stress, whether it be through calming their minds, regulating their emotions, or learning how to express their thoughts and feelings effectively. After going through these DBT skills and exercises, teens will walk away feeling more equipped to handle the pressures of school, home life, and friendships.
The benefits of stress management with DBT are endless. Set your teen up for success by purchasing a copy of the workbook today!

How do you go on living when someone you love has died? How is life ever going to be the same again? How do you find the will to carry on? Is there such a thing as moving on?

Every year millions face the effects of dealing with loss and grief. This can be the result of death, divorce, moving, retirement, or other life events. Since society hasn’t provided effective ways of handling grief, many grievers feel lost and alone.

Grief is a reaction that happens when someone we love or care about dies or leaves. When this happens, a whole host of emotions might overwhelm you. Some of these emotions include feeling sad, angry, confused, or scared. What’s even more frightening is not knowing how to deal with this sudden wave of emotions that have hit you hard like a tsunami.

The pain of losing someone we love cannot be described in words. It feels like your whole world is falling apart. The crushing pain in your chest signals that your heart feels like it is breaking into a million pieces. It feels like the tears will never stop flowing. Your whole world has been turned upside down, and you might even feel like you will never smile again

There is no right or wrong way to deal with the loss of a loved one. The grieving process is challenging, and it’s different for everyone. It’s not just a matter of coping with a loss, but coping with change — and that takes time. Grief is not something that we want to avoid feeling either.

These moving stories of real people affected by Huntington’s give a human face and voice to this dreadful illness, making the unimaginable imaginable and felt by the heart.
Lisa Genova, New York Times bestselling author of Inside the O’Briens

We often remark in life that “nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors,” but without first-hand stories like these, I don’t think we really understand the extent of that sentiment. I implore anyone to read HD Heroes.
George Rainsford, actor and patron for the Huntington’s Disease Association

Essential reading for anyone affected by Huntington’s, whether carrier, caregiver, partner, or friend. Profoundly moving accounts by those with or at risk of inheriting this cruel disease.
Helen Pidd, author and North of England editor at the Guardian.

I was truly brought to tears by the authors’ courage and fortitude in finding ways to deal with the hardships and create empowerment from the difficult road HD represents—it is motivational and inspirational for all of us to read.
Leslie M. Thompson, HD researcher

HD Heroes invites the reader to become part of the HD team by having a better understanding of the impact of the disease on the real lives of those living it. The contributors here have shared their lives in a brave and open manner.
Mark Guttman MD, FRCPC neurologist and clinical researcher in HD

HD Heroes is a moving, powerful, and remarkable collection of personal stories from people affected by HD in some way. Their stories must be read by anyone interested in learning more about what makes our HD family community so amazing.
Professor Sarah Tabrizi, HD doctor and scientist

Huntington’s disease has been steeped in secrecy and fear for generations, leaving people in the community without a voice. This book changes that. Twenty-six people from nine countries bravely share their personal stories about living in the shadows of this disease. By doing so they are saying: Here I am. I will not be kept silent.

From a scientist who switched from cancer research to studying Huntington’s after finding out her mother had tested positive for the disease, to a young man whose biggest fear was testing gene negative and not inheriting the disease, to a woman who grew up in survival mode, unable to express her grief. We learn about the ways their lives are better off because of the hardships they have faced. By sharing these intimate parts of their lives, they are taking away the fear and stigma of living with HD in their families, and for that reason alone they are truly all HD heroes.

And when you read these stories, you will see that YOU are an HD hero too.

This book shares first-person stories from people who have tested gene positive, who have tested gene negative, or who have decided not to test, as well as stories from young carers, families living with juvenile HD, scientists, HD advocates, and more.
