Embracing the mission of ""respecting life, one suicide is too many,"" the authors have engaged with survivors and delved into the writings left behind by the deceased. Their aim is to uncover strategies for suicide prevention, standing in solidarity with readers and committing to become guardians for those in need, offering the pledge of ""willing to accompany you"" to confront life's challenges together. This practical self-help manual utilizes data analysis to elucidate the suicide situation in Hong Kong over the past 20 years.
