Dealing with Depression - Charmaine Dragun Story

I showed this clip as part of the "Dealing with Depression" presentation today.
It was the opening section of an ABC TV documentary called "Friday's Child" - about Channel 10 newsreader Charmaine Dragun.

It helped "set the scene" about the topic - and highlighted how people mask depression from those closest to them.

What I found surprising was how it affected me again - I had to compose myself in the dark auditorium before I transitioned to the next speaking section - I knew I was "wobbly" for about 5 minutes after that - but nobody probably noticed.
