I am an emergency room physician. The greatest tragedy that I see is a young person who attempts or commits suicide. What went wrong? How did this happen? How did they get overwhelmed and how could they have been helped? I have learned that a person's self-respect determines the quality of every aspect of their life. Many of the patients I treat in the ER are manipulated, unable to say no, overloaded by the demands of others, bullied, conned, or beaten down physically and emotionally. Over the past thirty years, I have given the same advice to thousands of people to help them build their self-respect and take control of their lives. Mentors and Tormentors is the summary of that advice told by remarkable people who teach their lessons to a young teenager. My sincere hope is that I can help a larger audience, rather than one at a time in the ER, learn how to handle themselves and other people and enjoy complete peace of mind.
