Historia
For much of his 30s, Jesse Bering thought he was probably going to kill himself. He was a successful psychologist and writer, but the impulse to take his own life remained. At times it felt all but inescapable. Bering survived. And in addition to relief, the fading of his suicidal thoughts brought curiosity and questions. In Suicidal, Bering takes us through the science and psychology of suicide, revealing its cognitive secrets and the subtle tricks our minds play on us when we're easy emotional prey.

The book I was looking for.
Revisado: 01-04-20
I thoroughly enjoyed this unapologetic and unashamed exploration of suicide. As another has pointed out and as thoroughly discussed in the book, publishing this sort of information may have moral implications by increasing the likelihood of at risk persons killing themselves. That said, as someone who has dealt with suicidal ideation from the time I was a young child, I appreciated the open minded and nothing off limits approach which helped me to explore many of the questions I’ve had surrounding the topic and as a result helped me feel less alienated. Jesse was bold enough to even have a dark sense of humor when discussing the topic. This again may bother others, but struck me as authentic and reminiscent of my own thoughts.
