About this listen

 Jazz Thornton first attempted to take her own life at the age of 12. Multiple attempts followed and she spent time in psychiatric wards and under medical supervision as she rode the rollercoaster of depression and anxiety through her teenage years - yet the attempts continued.

Find out what Jazz learned about how her negative thought patterns came to be, and how she turned those thoughts - and her life - around. Who and what helped, and what didn't help. The insights she gives will help create greater understanding of those grappling with mental illness, and provide support for those around them who desperately want to help.

Jazz went on to attend film school, and to co-found Voices of Hope, a non-profit organisation dedicated to helping those with mental health issues and show them there is a way forward. She creates online content to provide hope and help.

Her first video Dear Suicidal Me has had over 80 million views all around the world. She went on to create Jessica's Tree, a web series that follows the 24 hours between a friend, Jess, going missing and the discovery of her body. It provides insights into Jessica's struggles, to help people better understand those suffering from depression. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QFU_qg7Msk Jessica's Tree was viewed more than 230,000 times in the two months following its release in March 2019 and immediately began winning international recognition and awards, including the Huawei Mate30 Pro New Zealand Television Awards 2019 Best Web Series.
The process and the delicate decisions that had to be made to create Jessica's Tree have themselves been documented in a film about Jazz called The Girl on the Bridge, due for release early in 2020. Personal Development Self-Esteem Mental Health Health Inspiring Feel-Good

Great read but a bit to religious for me . Jazz has her ups and downs but she shows hope.

Great

I listened to this audiobook during my 2nd year of university. Which was very hard for me, stressful, and at times, felt pointless. But I’m here, nearly going into 3rd year. Thankyou Jazz, you’re loved and cared for by many. 🤍

Jazz is strong, inspiring and helps develop hope!

I listened to this in the space of 2 days almost non stop. Before listening to this I had debated if I could really listen to something that was going to make me think about my own mental health. During the first day of listening I went around my city and stuck signs on bridges and benches with messages of hope and phone numbers of helplines. Personally I knew I had to be focusing on mental health to listen and engage with something that was going to make me think. In some ways my story is similar to Jazz’s but it’s definitely not over. The power of the message in this book is overwhelming and I had the decision to write my own story out for myself. I needed to understand what I was fighting for and so I went to the beginning and have tried to write everything that happened to me so I can process my own story. Jazz is incredible and this story shows everything she has battled with and overcome. This book should be read by everyone from those battling with their own mental illness to those who’ve never had to experience mental illness. Let’s break the stigma of mental illness and keep talking. Hope is Real, Change is Possible!

Hope is Real
