Getting Through The Crisis: From Pain To Purpose

By Curshion Jones and Prof. Solomon Makola, PhD

Often times, we overlook the signs of depression. Suppressing our own truths, we hide behind denial and ignore the fact that we are collapsing. We fail to take a moment to do an introspective look at our own life and experiences, and check in on our mental health. Even when all of the evidence is there, we still repudiate the fact that we have fallen into the depths of our own minds.



Curshion Jones invites his readers to journey with him through life-changing moments in which he had to come to terms with his own healing. Reflecting on his mother’s death, he challenges his audience to confront their own pain and find strength in the struggle—acknowledging lessons, changing one’s perspective on loss and life, forgiveness of others and self, and understanding that pain does not make one powerless.



This book creates an opportunity for people to learn the importance of knowing the signs of depression and anxiety, seeking help and recognizing that it’s okay not to be okay. It takes courage to build one’s self after falling into the shadows and feeling that you are left with nothing. The truth is—you are not alone. Others have felt the same wounds of their battles and lived in silence. As Jones reaches further than his philanthropic work of uplifting individuals through film, he uses literature to help others find their voice and heal.
