5.0 out of 5 stars Best written book I've read on the subject of suicide.
This book is truly different from the usual books written about suicide. It not a book about statistics nor a book about the religious issues surrounding the suicide of a loved one.

Dr. Williams provides insight for the surviving loved ones to understand the "Cry of Pain" our loved ones felt. It is the only book that brought me some TRUE understanding...

2.0 out of 5 stars Very Difficult Reading for a Survivor
This book is insightful, yet it proves to be difficult reading for a survivor dealing with the immediate loss of a loved one. The statistics come across cold and sometimes uncaring. It may be more suitable for a student of suicidology, than someone in pain seeking solace and validation.

This review is from: Cry of Pain: Understanding Suicide and Self-Harm (Penguin Psychology) (Paperback)
This book is truly different from the usual books written about suicide. It not a book about statistics nor a book about the religious issues surrounding the suicide of a loved one.

Dr. Williams provides insight for the surviving loved ones to understand the "Cry of Pain" our loved ones felt. It is the only book that brought me some TRUE understanding about my own husband's suicide. This book is helpful in dealing with the full range of emotions families are left to cope with for years to come. I still re-read it regularly and receive new benefits as I pass through different stages of coping.
