It is not a figment of their imagination. The unrelenting influx of information and change make the turbulent teen years especially dangerous. Teen suicide rates are higher than ever as our 24/7 world moves faster and faster.
 Teens need to feel more relaxed, more safe and more in control. Delight wrote this book while still a teen for teens. She presents eight easy to follow steps to cool off the teen stress soup that will make teen life more focused and enjoyable. The interactive wellness activities and being written in a story format by a teen for teens is what distinguishes it from every other teen stress book on the market.
The book tells the story of energetic and likeable Derisa Moore, a high school student in grade/year 12 who experiences the near suicide of one friend and the untimely death of another. All this while juggling the usual teen stressors of parental hassles, dating, grades and work. Collapsing under the pressure, she is helped by her older brother’s wellness counsel and support. She completes a difficult year with the necessary stress hardiness and skills to succeed and enjoy life. 

Delight Chandler is an emergency nurse working in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Known for her capacity to enjoy life, she was elected president of her high school student association and quickly discovered the pressures of providing leadership in addition to all the other stressors of life. While still a teen, Delight, wrote the story line for this book which reflects the day-to-day realities of high school life. The story, which teens love, shows solutions to the varied stressors of teens from parents, to friends, to loss and pain.
