Navigating Life After Loss

Faris doesn’t shy away from the heavy topics of depression and suicide, offering valuable information, insights, and resources to educate and support both those grieving and those who may be struggling themselves.
At its core, this book is about hope. Hope that others can find peace in their pain, hope that lives can be saved by understanding depression, and hope that no one has to face loss alone. Faris Jean’s dream of becoming an author was born out of her own grief, and through this book, she hopes to not only comfort those who have suffered loss but also to prevent further pain by spreading awareness and knowledge about the mental health struggles that often accompany grief.
