- Richard A. Heckler (1994). Waking up alive: The descent, the suicide attempt, and the return to life. New York, NY. The Berkley Publishing Group.
Comment : “We can learn so much from life, we can also learn so much from death. However, this book leads us to another kind of experiences – after the failed suicide attempt, some people woke up and found themselves alive and found out that healing was indeed possible.”
We recommend this book because we think learning the insight from people who came back from their suicide attempts will help us see life in a different way and help us to become a person with hope.
