Description

At just 12 years old, Jazz Thornton's life took a devastating turn as she attempted to take her own life. Despite multiple attempts, she continued to struggle with depression and anxiety, spending time in psychiatric wards and under medical supervision. However, it was during this dark period that she began to uncover the root causes of her negative thought patterns.

Through her journey, Jazz shares the insights she gained about the impact of her thoughts and the people who helped her, as well as those who didn't. Her story is one of hope and resilience, and it sheds light on the experiences of those living with mental illness. With a newfound understanding, Jazz went on to pursue a career in film and co-founded Voices of Hope, a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting those with mental health issues.

This powerful and personal account offers a unique perspective on mental health, one that is both raw and relatable. Jazz's story will resonate with anyone who has struggled with their mental wellbeing, and will appeal to readers those who want to support loved ones who are struggling.
