Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most complete book of its kind. 750 pages.The knowledge that lets you control your own death also gives a sense of control in life, especially when the future is unknown. This book is: § WHEN FACING unbearable and unrelievable suffering, to know when and how to draw one's own life to a close - rather than be at the mercy of lingering illness. Detailed methods.§ FOR RESEARCHERS needing access to the fullest and best-evidenced information§ FOR EVERY RESPONSIBLE ADULT who wants to be in control of his or her own living and dying.Why this book? Sometimes we have a fairy-tale belief that everything will be fine ... but then, suddenly things take an unexpected turn for the worse and it is hard to see a path ahead. At this point, planning and preparation make a crucial difference. Whether you use this book to take control of your last moments, to die when and how you will; or whether you use that knowledge to give you he strength to face an unknown future: knowledge is power. The Exit Path is to give you that power.HELIUM is the popular means of self-deliverance among members of 'right-to-die' societies; yet still there are last minute failures, botched attempts or panics that most 'guides' don't want you to know about. The Exit Path puts the technique under a microscope, shows the variations and how to eliminate failures. With over 100 pages (and over 50 photographs and step-by-step diagrams) on the use of helium in rational suicide alone, The Exit Path gives you control, and offers the opportunity to make failure impossible. Eliminate problems before you think of them with correct information and the best solutions to dilemmas. The book also shows you how to obtain all that you need. You can get rid of doubts and put your mind at rest.The most extensive of any self-deliverance book you can buy, The Exit Path has:§ OVER 750 PAGES§ OVER 1000 REFERENCES with supporting evidence§ 100 RELEVANT ILLUSTRATIONS§ 7 TABLES§ "IN A NUTSHELL" EXPLANATIONS§ DETAILED MEDICAL EXPERTIZE§ EASY-TO-USE, STEP-BY-STEP "HOW-TO" GUIDES§ THE BEST DATA-LED REFERENCE BOOK. § 58 ILLUSTRATIONS ON HELIUM METHOD§ 25 ILLUSTRATIONS ON COMPRESSION METHOD No other book provides the level of expert detail you will find in The Exit Path.With problems over dwindling helium supplies, carotid artery compression is the fast-growing field of interest in self-deliverance. With brand-new commissioned material and an in-depth examination of the objections and concerns, The Exit Path gives you the know-how on this valuable emergency technique.The Exit Path examines differences in the action of SLEEPING DRUGS, what to use, and how. It reveals metadata on the properties of ANTI-EMETICS to help you choose best solutions.FASTING TO DEATH continues to haunt the right-to-die movement with apologists recommending it as a near-perfect way and critics unsure. Horrific deaths have resulted from premature recommendation by well-meaning individuals, even among those aware of dangers and how to avoid them. The Exit Path analyses differences between fasting in hospital and fasting at home. You will read exclusive guidance based on the most comprehensive data and interviews with expertise worldwide.Knowing how to ensure a peaceful death is only half the picture. We all face the prospect of "all this" coming to an end. For the first time in a self-deliverance manual, The Exit Path provides practical approaches based on proven techniques for facing down the moment of death.The Exit Path takes you through every stage - the planning, dealing with your doctor, your family, an examination of the law, emotional concerns, Dignitas, and even provides handy checklists to let you stay on top of the many dilemmas that arise as life approaches its end.The Exit Path includes a great amount of previously unpublished or undisclosed material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By portraying the circumstances of people living with chronic conditions in radically different contexts, from Alzheimer’s patients in the UK to homeless people with psychiatric disorders in India, Managing Chronicity in Unequal States offers glimpses of what dealing with medically complex conditions in stratified societies means. While in some places the state regulates and intrudes on the most intimate aspects of chronic living, in others it is utterly and criminally absent. Either way, it is a present/absent actor that deeply conditions people’s opportunities and strategies of care. This book explores how individuals, groups and communities navigate uncertain and unequal healthcare systems, in which inherent moral judgements on human worth have long-lasting effects on people’s wellbeing. This is key reading for anyone wishing to deconstruct the issues at stake when analysing how care and chronicity are entangled with multiple institutional, economic, and other circumstantial factors. How people access the available informal and formal resources as well as how they react to official diagnoses and decisions are important facets of the management of chronicity. In the arena of care, people with chronic conditions find themselves negotiating restrictions and handling issues of power and (inter)dependency in relationships of inequality and proximity. This is particularly relevant in current times, when care has given in to the lure of the market, and the possibility of living a long and fulfilling life has been drastically reduced, transformed into a ‘reward’ for the few who have been deemed worthy of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
