About this audiobook
"Are you concerned about the direction your youth’s life is taking? Have you ever thought, I can’t keep doing this; something must change? Or have you had a tragic event involving your youth rock your world leaving you struggling to regain peace? Do you wonder about what comes next? Take comfort in knowing that you are not alone. This book is filled with road signs of what works and what doesn’t work in walking alongside a youth in crisis. It takes us on a journey with a youth and his loved ones as they seek to find peace amidst a life of turmoil. It traces the authors efforts to support a 'son' as he journeyed through his conflicts of mental issues, drugs, alcohol, homelessness, struggles with abandonment and social anxiety leading to suicidal thoughts. Pain, mental anguish, suicide, faith, and conflict are all explored along this journey. The book uses the overlapping journeys as insights into some of the shortfalls, behavior triggers and warning signs that you the reader might see in yourself or your loved one as you walk with your troubled youth or worst, try to maintain a sense of normalcy after they’ve made a tragic choice. Lessons learned are shared and insights given as to how to navigate some of these obstacles and find peace. The author’s hope is that you learn from the experiences in this book as you echo your own journey."

CHRIS MARTIN is this very moment endeavoring to become himself, a somemany and tilted thinking animal who sways, hags, loves, trees, lights, listens, and arrives. He is a poet who teaches and learns in mutual measure, as the connective hub of Unrestricted Interest/TILT and the curator of Multiverse, a series of neurodivergent writing from Milkweed Editions. His most recent book of poems is Things to Do in Hell (Coffee House, 2020) and he lives on the edge of Bde Maka Ska in Minneapolis, among the bur oaks and mulberries, with Mary Austin Speaker and their two bewildering creatures.
