Klappentext

More Americans die by suicide than by homicide or vehicular accidents every year. Nine percent of Americans are dealing with depression at any particular time, many of them with major depression that can last a lifetime. Depression is the leading cause of disability for Americans age 15 to 44. These are under-appreciated problems because they're usually hidden and often come with a stigma of shame.In Guardian of the Golden Gate, Briggs shares his experiences with the help of people who credit their lives to him. His inspiring story will help shine a light on a killer that lurks in the darkness and show readers signs to look for and the value of hope. You will gain insight into this steadfast hero that will allow you to see why he's known as the Golden Gate's guardian.

Great book! If it hadn't been for my brother jumping to his death on the East coast a few months ago I might not have been tuned in to read this as those of us who are called "survivors of suicide" can't do anything to bring our loved ones back and are more likely than others in the population to then work towards suicide prevention. I wouldn't want anyone else to experience the horrible loss my family has experienced.So reading about Kevin and his work toward suicide prevention was a next step for me. He is humble and honest in his writing about his own mental health struggles and losses he has experienced that helped him in his work to talk others back over the rail. I'm glad I pre-ordered this book and read through it in just a few days. We need to focus more on those people doing such work as Kevin and his fellow officers on the bridge do, especially in these days were every mistake a police officer makes is headline news. So many of them put their lives on the line day after day for years witnessing horrific events that impact their own mental health.

I had the privilege of working with Kevin for about 8 years, and we were on the motor squad together for 5 of those years. Kevin is a great guy, a dedicated officer, and one of the best supervisors/sergeant I've ever had. I have attended one of Kevin's seminars, and left feeling deeply touched and impressed with his passion, dedication, and presentation of the seminar regarding mental illness. I purchased and read Guardian of the Golden Gate: Protecting the Line Between Hope and Despair. The book is an excellent and educational read. Kevin balances the book with many interesting personal experiences, stories, tragedy, humor, lessons, warning signs, symptoms, treatment, hope, and support. They are delivered in a manner to keep your interest while smoothly flowing. Kevin's book has helped even me while dealing with the most difficult period of my life following a serious on-duty accident on my motorcycle. I can personally say everything Kevin wrote is true, unexaggerated, and brutally honest. Everyone should read his book. Each person will at a minimum enjoy the stories, humor, and see the life and job through the eyes of a police officer. Many will gain insight into mental illness, learn about recognizing mental illness, and many dealing with mental illness will gain hope and knowledge of treatment options. Give this book a chance and you won't be disappointed.

I enjoyed reading this book. I was once prevented from jumping off this bridge by an officer (though not by Kevin) and I could relate to some of the people he mentions in this book. I found it interesting reading the other people's stories and seeing how some who were similar (or worse) situations than me who managed to turn theirs lives around after being stopped. I related to how some still struggled to get better for a while after being deterred and how they eventually were able to find some happiness (which gave me hope). I also liked the advice he gives on how to approach or talk with someone who is suicidal and wish more people knew how to appropriately talk with someone who is dealing with these issues. This book is definitely worth reading and I want to share it with other people. A must read!

While I have been personally touched by suicide and mental illness, I am ashamed to say that I was unaware of the magnitude of this issue. Suicide is truly an epidemic. Awareness for the issues of mental illness is part of that epidemic. Kevin Briggs is in a battle for all of us. The book is full of great stories both on an off the bridge, that allow you to get to know him and his cause. He is truly a wealth of useful information. It's also a good read. Thank you Mr. Briggs for your energy, your commitment, your efforts for all of those suffering from mental illness, and your new book. This is a book that needs to be shared!

I bought this book as I teach psychology courses in psychology and criminal justice. The author does an excellent job describing his skills talking people back over the rail and elements of his life are an important part of the book. Unfortunately, he wanders into mentalistic psychological concepts and seems almost to defer to those in psychology far less skilled than he is at saving people from dying at their own hands. He does demonstrate the if one "listens to understand," you can been a "traffic cop" yet make an important contribution one the lives of many suicidal people and their families.
