I wanted my thoughts to be clear: black and white. But no. It was all just grey. Grey Thoughts is an honest retelling of my college experience, the decline of my mental health during my grief, and my efforts to find something to live for.

With honesty and compassion, this medical doctor offers a road map for anyone who longs to be more present, supportive, and helpful—but doesn’t know what to say or do.

It's a final gift you give to those you love: the gift of clarity, reduced burden, and peace of mind.
