Suicide Scripts: : A Clinical Companion for Suicidal Narratives

Suicide Scripts is not just a clinical guide-it is an act of witness. Written for clinicians, educators, and those who walk alongside the suicidal, this companion explores the deeper architecture of suicidal thought: not simply as a crisis of risk, but as a crisis of story.Grounded in narrative theory, suicidology, and lived clinical experience, this book maps the suicidal mind as it unfolds across identity collapse, failed goals, shame, and relational rupture. Each chapter illuminates a distinct narrative theme-perfectionism, burdensomeness, alienation, and entrapment-tracing how internalized scripts shape not only suicidal risk, but the very sense of who a person is allowed to be.More than theory, Suicide Scripts offers a way of seeing. Through reflective prose, clinical vignettes, and an unwavering commitment to presence over prediction, it calls for a shift: from managing symptoms to understanding stories. From preventing death to restoring meaning.This is a book for anyone who has ever asked, not just why someone might want to die-but how their story brought them there. And whether, with care, it might still be rewritten.
