Have you tried to have a sincere dialogue with yourself? It takes courage to be honest with yourself. This time I finally got the courage to face my weakness. “I want to die, can I? ”my mother asked me the most difficult question in my life in 2008 . She suffered from depression and alcoholism for almost 10 years.I saw her pain, I don’t know if death is a relief to her. We cannot choose our birth, but we can definitely choose when to end our life. I don’t know how to reply, nor should I answer because I am not qualified to make decision for others, especially she is the one who brought me to this world. Having mental health problems is a common issue in Hong Kong.I believe there are many people suffering pain and I hope to share my story to let others caregiver know that they are not alone. Also, it records my little stories of my growth, unwilling to let go of my childhood. What hinders me from stepping forward is not about the growth but the all the memorable experiences. With this book, I can continue my route again by putting down those memories. Maybe you are not interested in knowing more about me , but this definitely the first important book in my life.
