The book offers detailed steps, practical suggestions, and compassionate advice to help you and your family cope after suicide.

How’s Your Marriage:
A Book for Men and Women

"In this age of information overload here is a book that speaks equally to men and women, and to them as couples. Truly a 'guide', the readers will feel that they are in close communication with a friendly and very experienced professional who talks to them in a clear, caring and gentle way about their intimacy, their frustrations, their disappointments and their hopes. From issues of communication to sexuality, from fears of separation and divorce, to despair of ever finding intimacy and love, from concerns about children and worry over drug abuse and mental illness, Dr. Myers shares his wide clinical and professional experience, and his warmth and concern as a person to provide a rich trove of experience and advice which will be welcomed by those many who increasingly despair of finding resolution with their partners, and renewed hope for a fuller life.”
--Ian Alger, M.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, The New York Hospital--Cornell University Medical Center, Fellow, American Marriage and Family Therapy Association, New York, New York

Doctors’ Marriages:
A Look at the Problems and Their Solutions

Second Edition
"For doctors, medical students, and their spouses/partners, and for therapists sweeping up the rubble, Myers (psychiatry, U. of British Columbia) draws on his own clinical experience to suggest a biopsychosocial perspective to understanding the stresses on doctors' relationships. He includes many vignettes illustrating common situations, and surveys the various approaches to treatment. The new edition includes insights from further cases since 1988."
