I am an inmate of the Greenbrook Correctional Facility, and I was sent this book as a birthday present from my mother, who loves me even though the burn marks haven't faded yet. At the time, I was in solitary, for trying to sacrifice a rat I caught to my dark god, Cthulu, but this book helped me to get through it, even though they only let me turn a light on for an hour a day.
In fact, the name of this book, "Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul, The Tough Stuff," is more true than I can say. It helped me through my own darkness, and taught me that worshipping the dark god Cthulu is wrong wrong wrong. I'm sorry, mom, that I tried to brand you with his dread sigil. And I'm sorry to all the class mates I injured. But most of all, I'm sorry to little Billy, may he rest in peace.
Thank you, Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul, The Tough Stuff

Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul on Tough Stuff is my most favorite one of the Chicken Soup books thus far. This book depicted so perfectly the turmoil going on in so many teenagers' lives this day in age in America and all over the globe. The subjects talked about ranged from suicide and depression, to violence in schools, death, and so much more. I guess the reason this particular set of books is so effective is because its contents involve the lives of so many people who are easy to relate to.
I enjoyed the fact that within every story shared, I could in some way or another relate to it. Maybe I am not the suicidal one, but I have more than one friend be in those shoes before. Because the book is set up in the manner it is, it was easy to navigate to any subject I was looking for. My favorite stories in the book dealt with loss and death. Even though I am very aware that people are taken from other's every day, it is comforting to hear people's journeys through dealing with loss. This past year two students from our school community were taken away from us. Being able to hear the stories of those who have lost brothers and sisters, moms and dads, or friends is more helpful than imaginable. When the two boys from our school died, I truly believe that some people, including myself, thought that no one else in the world had ever felt the pain that we were dealing with. Chicken Soup showed me that my problems, including losing friends, are minor compared to other people's issues.
This book was amazing, showing me people from all walks of life. Reading it was definitely a humbling experience. I would recommend this book to everyone, not just teens. I believe that even adults could benefit from reading such a profound compilation of literature.

As a teenager have you been torn apart or crumbled? This book has short stories about teenagers with eating disorders, death of a family member, suicide, and depression. These teen stories can help in real life situations, concerns and deep hidden feelings.
In this book there are poems, letters, and stories that teens have wrote to express their thoughts and emotions. All teenagers are able to have connections with the writers. I have learned how to handle certain situations from reading this book. An example is copping with the death of a family member by thinking positive. In some stories and poems I have had to infer the lesson or message by finding little clues. Teenagers are ready to be open with their life to help others who have been or still going through tough stuff. Reading this book helps teens know that there are others with the same or similar problem.
This is the book to read for advise or to help out a friend that might be going through some tough stuff. Parents can also read this book to know some of the situations teens go through during this time in their life. Teens can feel better about themselves to know their are not the only one going through unhappy times.

I highly reccommed this book to teens and even adults. For adults this book would open their eyes to some of the everyday problems that teenagers are faced with and how we struggle with them. This compalation of stories is written by teens who share their thoughts about different issues.
These stories are unique and lets teens know that they are not alone is the tough issues they face. For young adults who read this book, it will come across as a voice of reason, compassion, and hope instead of a strict, commanding voice. Along with great stories, this book gives great advice for tough situations. This book left me with a lighter heart and I found it to be very difficult to put down. The stories were truly inspirational and genuinely from the heart in seeking of reaching others with the same problems. This is one of the greatest books I have ever read and definately gets my recommedation.

I was really blessed to have this book in my hands, that book made me open my eyes to a lot of issues that were going in my life. I was going through tough times, which meant that I was going through depression and I was thinking about suicide and nothing else. I had a best friend that helped me think about all my problems, that some people had worse problems than I did, and the book was it.I know that I'm here for a purpose in life, and that there's people out there who want to live and here I am trying to do something to end mine. This book made me open my eyes wide enough to discover that there are a lot of beautiful things in life and that you have to enjoy every moment in it and live life to the fullest and be happy every day. I really enjoyed reading this book.
