Book excerpt: When Going Through Hell...Don't Stop! A Survivor's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety and Clinical Depression--which describes the dramatic story of author and counselor Douglas Bloch's battle with, and ultimate recovery from, a life-threatening depressive illness. Although the managed care mental health system failed to provide him with adequate treatment, Mr. Bloch devised "a daily survival plan for living in hell" which he adopted until the power of spirit, acting through a group of committed, loving people, brought about his recovery. In addition to his compelling story, Mr. Bloch outlines a fourteen point "brain maintenance" program--a holistic approach to the treatment of anxiety and depression that includes: diet; nutrition; exercise; stress-reduction; medication; vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplements; and the importance of creating strong bonds of social support (social isolation is both a cause of and a consequence of depression).

Download or read book When Hell Becomes Your Home How I Survived 14Years In Prison written by Author N. Cognito and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A self-help book drawn from the author's elite military training and autobiographical experiences over the course of being forced to survive for fourteen years within the confines of a notorious privately owned Corrections Corporation of America prison in the state of Tennessee. This is not just a self-help manual for the incarcerated or interested parties, but rather a rich detailed account of how an elite soldier survived a personal journey through a world of extreme emotional and psychological duress, violence, death, corruption, prison politics, and survival while refusing to join a prison gang for protection. This is the experienced knowledge of a soldier who is forced to become a prison convict and continue, seemingly alone, upon a dangerous warrior's path which ultimately culminates into a personal spiritual journey. If experience is the most cruel teacher of all than the tools, knowledge, wisdom, and insights shared within the pages of this book were acquired through unadulterated cruelty.

Download or read book Hell Or High Water written by Peter Heller and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great adventure tales of man against nature have already been told the race to the South Pole; the first ascent of Everest; Shackleton's escape from Antarctica. Each continent has yielded up its treasure, and there are few such epic challenges left. But deep in the Tsangpo Gorge a team of extreme kayakers found their Everest. The Tsangpo Gorge cuts through the eastern end of the Himalayas to form the deepest, most remote river canyon on earth. Three times deeper than the Grand Canyon, hemmed in by 7500 metre plus peaks, and sacred to Tibetan Buddhists, the Tsangpo is revered as the last remaining extreme adventure challenge. An attempt in 1998 failed, ending in the death of one of the team. In 2002, despite the dangers, seven of the world's top expeditionary kayakers, including New Zealander Mike Abbott, paddled against the furious currents of Tibet's Tsangpo River and into the throat of the gorge. Led by filmmaker Scott Lindgren, the kayakers launched a grand, 19th century-style river expedition on a scale not seen since Lewis and Clark. Supported by an international team of eighty including Nepali sherpas, a Buddhist lama, a great Tibetan explorer, and author and adventurer Peter Heller they were prepared to go fifty days through the Himalayan winter without re-supply. It would become a thirty-seven day epic taking the paddlers through the most dangerous sustained white water ever and into the heart of the mythical Shangri-la, an isolated world of dense forests, ancient prayer caves and golden panthers. Along the way they were forced to traverse a terrifyingly steep mountain pass of snow and ice, kayaks slung across their backs; negotiate with corrupt officials; stare down violent, mutinous porters; and confront their own inner demons and fears. Hell or High Water takes you on a heart-stopping, awe-inspiring journey into a near-inaccessible world of death-defying white water and international river cowboys. A place so remote, so veiled in mystery and steeped with religious significance that one of its earliest explorers called it the very end of the earth'.

Book excerpt: The author of Men Explain Things to Me explores the moments of altruism and generosity that arise in the aftermath of disaster Why is it that in the aftermath of a disaster? whether manmade or natural?people suddenly become altruistic, resourceful, and brave? What makes the newfound communities and purpose many find in the ruins and crises after disaster so joyous? And what does this joy reveal about ordinarily unmet social desires and possibilities? In A Paradise Built in Hell, award-winning author Rebecca Solnit explores these phenomena, looking at major calamities from the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco through the 1917 explosion that tore up Halifax, Nova Scotia, the 1985 Mexico City earthquake, 9/11, and Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.

Desperately, he searches for a place where the cult can’t get their hands on him, or more importantly, on the bioweapon they infected him with. But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALC’s leader, Nick, is gorgeous, autistic, and a deadly shot, and he knows Benji’s darkest secret: the cult’s bioweapon is mutating him into a monster deadly enough to wipe humanity from the earth once and for all. Still, Nick offers Benji shelter among his ragtag group of queer teens, as long as Benji can control the monster and use its power to defend the ALC.
