Men Get Depression (2008.HDTV.)



Originally aired: 2008.05.23

\"MEN GET DEPRESSION explores the corrosive effect of depression on the self, relationships and careers through the intimate profiles of a diverse group of men, including a former NFL quarterback, a Fortune 500 CEO, an unemployed Iraq War veteran, a university professor, a pastor and others. The documentary features revealing, normally confidential, scenes of psychotherapists discussing their patients\' responses to treatment. The film focuses on three stages of men\'s lives, with each representing a unique set of challenges and potential triggers of depression: the beginning of work life and college years, the middle years of career and family life, and retirement and the later years. In addition, leading mental health professionals comment on the emerging scientific understanding of depression, its physiologic causes, environmental triggers and new directions in treatment. Finally, the program also addresses depression\'s \"collateral casualties\" — men\'s spouses, children and friends, all of whom can play a critical role in recognizing symptoms, encouraging treatment and providing emotional support.\"
