Synopsis:
Clinical depression is a debilitating illness that affects one in four women during various life stages. In this program, Helene Lerner, host and health care advocate, reveals that, when many people move into clinical depression, they are often incapable of experiencing joy, laughter and even love. Through the real-life stories of courageous women who have faced this illness, the documentary reveals not only the dark, consuming side of clinical depression, but also the safe harbor and help found in education, medication, therapy, and group support.
