The Forgotten Caregiver of Mental Crisis is for the ones standing guard in the shadows. Those watching someone they love battle nightmares, self-destructive coping, and thoughts of ending their life.

Amber J. Parker knows this world all too well. As a Physician Assistant, military wife, and Jesus-follower, she fought for her combat veteran husband's life through PTSD and suicide attempts, and he's still alive. She understands the unrelenting tension of living with a ticking time bomb, including the sleepless nights, invisible wounds, and the pouring out of yourself to try to keep your loved one alive. She lived the chaos and turmoil of mental crisis caregiving.

Blending neuroscience, evidence-based practices, medical insight, faith, and raw personal story, Parker offers both validation and practical strategies to help caregivers:

• Recognize suicidal symptoms and learn ways to respond in crisis
• Understand the background of trauma and negative coping
• Find clarity in navigating treatment and therapy options
• Give themselves permission to care for their own needs also
• Feel seen, supported, and valued in an intense and lonely battle

For the caregiver who feels invisible, overwhelmed, and desperate, this book is both a guide and a lifeline. You are not alone in your battle. Not anymore.
