My Pink Prison

All of us wonder when a close friend or someone we know dies by suicide, "What were they thinking?" This is an insider look at a woman who attempted to take her own life and failed. Have you heard of the cat with nine lives? This is the woman with ten. Follow her on her journey of survival, childhood, past relationships and addiction, all seen through a distorted perception that slowly but surely comes into focus.

The woman's decision changed her life forever, albeit not immediately after. This is the woman's story as she tries to come to terms with her lifelong struggle with addiction. God must have spared her for a reason, right?
