Books on suicide

[Ki3r]

Bit of a morbid subject I know, but a friend has had to deal with a family member killing themselves this week.

She wants to try and understand why (I have told her the chances are she'll never know why), and has asked if there are any type of books that she could read and perhaps understand a bit more.

Does anyone know of anything that may be able to help? If there is something on a Kindle that would be even better.

Many thanks.

One of those things were you can't really understand how someone is feeling in the labyrinth of an anguished mind. If someone is determined then they will always find a way, even in secure establishments. My wife's a Community Mental Health Nurse dealing with the elderly and it's her biggest concern if someone recently diagnosed with something nasty even so much as utters the word.

You could try this Kindle at Amazon - http://amzn.to/1uWvTYT

Sorry for the delay, completely forgot about this thread! She knows that she'll never know the reasons why he did it, but if it helps her grieve, it was his funeral today.

She got this book and says its really good and insightful.
