Description
Rachael Newham's story begins with a slow and subtle tightening in her chest, a heart beating just a fraction faster. As she struggles to draw breath, panic wraps itself around her mind, making it impossible to inhale.
At the age of six, Rachael experienced her first suicidal thought, marking the beginning of a decade-long struggle with depression and self-harm. Before reaching adulthood, she would attempt to take her own life twice. Yet, amidst this darkness, a flicker of faith persisted.
This is Rachael's honest account of her journey into and out of the darkness of depression, revealing what it means to live with mental illness and how God can find and rescue us even in our most desperate moments.
