TORONTO, Ontario, Aug. 6, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — What if the very voice that drove you to save others was the same one urging you toward the edge? Icy Peaks Publishing is proud to announce the release of “Whispers from the Shadow: Confronting the Call of Suicide” (ISBN: 978-1069171009) by Dr. Jacques A. Frigault.

For more than 50 years, Dr. Frigault guided others out of the darkness. He helped them to face personal mental health struggles and to overcome thoughts of suicide. In this book, he reveals the painful truth behind his life’s work: he, too, was battling an inner voice – born from the devastating loss of his older brother to suicide at a young age — that beckoned him toward the same fate.

This deeply moving and eye-opening book is more than a memoir. It’s a testament to the human spirit’s ability to endure and rise. Dr. Frigault takes readers on a journey through grief, resilience and renewal. He offers powerful insight into suicide’s emotional, historical and philosophical roots. He draws from personal experience and clinical expertise, and dispels harmful myths, illuminates warning signs and encourages life-saving dialogue.

As suicide rates continue to climb (53,000+ lives were lost to suicide in North America in 2023), Dr. Frigault’s message is more urgent than ever. He is available for interviews to discuss his book, suicide prevention efforts, and to share how anyone can better equip themselves to recognize and respond to silent suffering.

Icy Peaks Publishing invites media outlets to join in raising awareness by featuring “Whispers from the Shadow” in upcoming stories. Review copies are available upon request, and “Whispers from the Shadow” is now available in paperback and eBook formats through Amazon.
