PBS - Cry for Help

Many feel that, in today’s society, the needs of the mentally ill have fallen completely by the wayside—with the most tragic results, perhaps, occurring among young people. This program features first-person stories from adolescents and young adults who are confronting depression, anxiety, and mental illness. From depressed, suicidal teens to parents unaware of what may be troubling their own children to those on the front lines of prevention and care, the program provides a rare and important look at mental illness among those whose lives are just beginning.
