The revised edition of When Living Hurts: For Teenagers, Young Adults, Their Parents, Leaders And Counselors is out, and it's a fine update to a much-lauded 1985 original print, written for young people in trouble or those who wish to help them. Teens are more susceptible to depression, loneliness, anger and suicidal tendencies, and When Living Hurts addresses these feelings, offering insights about worries and hopelessness in an imperfect world. Help can be found to address such worries: When Living Hurts tells where and how to find it.
