Prisoner Of Depression : Memoir Of An Unexpected Journey

Throughout most of his life, Jared Penn has been coping with the most common form of mental illness...depression. In September 2017, his life went spiraling downhill as his depression worsened and he decided to end his life. After a failed suicide attempt, the only result that came to be was property damage. Two months later, he was arrested from his accidental criminal act and sent to a psychiatric prison. Living in a violent and unpleasant environment, Jared would spend the next five months incarcerated among some of the most dangerous and criminally insane individuals. Prisoner of Depression is the story of one man's journey searching for freedom from prison and of his unwanted, negative emotions from depression. Filled with insights from the author's experience in an unfamiliar setting, his memoir tells a story of regret, survival, and resiliency. Prisoner of Depression has a mission to destigmatize and educate those who encounter individuals dealing with depression, suffering too often and too long without being acknowledged for their true selves. People can change, and people can heal. Most importantly, everyone's life has value, and everyone has something to contribute to this world. This book is just one of the many examples out there.
