This book does not tidy grief.
It does not offer neat stages.
It does not promise closure.

It tells the truth about what loss does to the brain and body;
and how writing became the only way I could survive it.

Grief is not weakness.
It is not something to fix.

What breaks people is silence.

The silence after suicide.
The silence around mental health.
The silence that makes grieving people feel alone in something millions experience.

This book breaks that silence.

Stay if you need. Leave if you need. You can come back.

Grief doesn’t ask. It takes.
And still; you’re here.
This space was built for that kind of bravery.
