ADDICTION AND DEPRESSION

A lot of depressed people, especially teenagers, also have problems with alcohol or other drugs. Sometimes the depression comes first and people try using drugs as a way to escape. Other times, the alcohol or other drug use comes first, and depression is caused by the drug itself, the withdrawal from it or the problems that substance abuse causes. The important point is that if someone has one or both of these problems, the sooner they get help the better. Teens at Risk teaches how to be honest about both issues - showing how depressed teens can deal effectively with their illness without substance abuse and how to communicate with people who can help them get into treatment.

TEENAGE DEPRESSION

The statistics on teen depression are sobering. Studies indicate that one in five children have some sort of mental, behavioral, or emotional problem and that one in ten of these problems are serious. Among adolescents, one in eight may suffer from depression. Of all these children and teens, a mere 30% receive any sort of intervention or treatment. The other 70% simply struggle through the pain of mental illness or emotional turmoil, doing their best to make it to adulthood. The consequences of untreated depression can range from increased incidence of depression in adulthood, involvement in the criminal justice system, or in some cases, suicide. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people ages 15 to 24. Even more shocking, it is the sixth leading cause of death among children ages 5 - 14. The most troubling fact is that these struggling teens often receive no counseling, therapy or medical intervention, even though the National Institute of Mental Health reports that studies show treatments of depression in children and adolescents can be effective.

ARRESTING ANGER

Anger like fear, happiness and sadness is a normal human emotion that needs to be expressed.

In this program teenagers talk about how they feel when they are angry and how they express their anger. They are asked "What triggers anger and how do you handle it?" A media commentator talks about the impact of the media on personal anger and how this is expressed. Counsellors give suggestions about strategies to manage anger, including the use of 'I" statements, being assertively angry and recognising trigger points.

GETTING OVER GRIEF

The way young people experience grief at the loss of a friend or loved one has often in the past been misunderstood or at worst ignored. The need to share with peers their feelings of loss and bereavement cannot be under estimated, nor can the desire to remember the dead in tangible ways.

In this program teenagers talk about their responses to the loss of a friend, and a mother whose son died of cancer discusses how she has coped with loss in a practical and creative manner. A school's response to the death of a student is described by a principal and grief counsellor, and we gain an understanding of the stages of grief and how the community can support bereaved young people.

It includes interviews with David G. Fassler, MD a child psychiatrist and author of Help Me, I'm Sad, and Steven Atkins, Psy.D., a psychologist at Dartmouth Medical School.

    TEEN CHALLENGES AND CHOICES - SAD, ANGRY, LONELY AND SCARED: THE MASKS OF DEPRESSION

    Untreated, depression is the number one cause of suicide and is the most common mental illness in the United States. Depression in teenagers is often hidden and can be manifested by anger, irrational reactions, delinquent behavior, secretiveness, and poor grades. Many teens who suffer from depression do not recognize it in themselves and feel they cannot be helped. This program gives teens the information they need to recognize the signs of depression in themselves and offers guidance for getting help. Among the speakers are teens diagnosed with depression and manic-depression, young people who have successfully overcome their depression, and families of teens who committed suicide. These earnest stories are counterbalanced by helpful remarks from a renowned adolescent psychiatrist.

    DEPRESSION AND MANIC DEPRESSION

    Depression affects over 17 million Americans each year, and it's been estimated that only one -third of this group gets any treatment, largely because of stigma and fear. The lack of treatment results in a high number of suicides, making this illness as fatal as any other illness and a public epidemic. This program from The Doctor Is In explains the disease through the experiences of several people, including 60 Minutes host Mike Wallace; Kay Redfield Jamison, psychiatrist and author of a book on her life with manic -depressive illness; artist Lama Dejani; and State Department official Robert Boorstin. The program also provides an overview of medications and therapy being used.

  • "This is an absolutely superb video about depression and manic -depression. It was elegantly presented, filled with accurate information (no mean feat), and wonderfully descriptive of the experiences involved." - Dr. Kay Redfield Jamison, Professor of Psychiatry, Johns Hopkins Medical Institution, and author of An Unquiet Mind

  • "I think it is one of the most informative, balanced, and effective presentations that I have ever seen." - John Gates, Ph.D., Director, The Carter Center, Mental Health Division

    SPECTRUM OF AUTISM, THE

    By Heidi Rosenthal

    Autism is referred to as a spectrum disorder: those affected by it can exhibit a wide range of symptoms and of developmental progress. It is this extreme variability which makes the disorder sometimes difficult to recognize, and may lead to children being misdiagnosed as mentally ill or retarded, when early and appropriate intervention is so crucial to treating children with autism.

    In this DVD, we share in the experiences of several families who have struggled to love and care for children who fall at various points on the spectrum of autism. We learn about the symptoms which first alerted them to the possibility of a developmental disorder in their child, and the challenges they faced in obtaining an accurate diagnosis, and then in securing proper treatment and an educational setting appropriate to their children's needs. We hear as well the perspectives of clinicians and educators who explain the difficulties they face in recognizing autism, and point to some of the common developmental signs which may be early signals of the disorder. These include delays or regression in learning to talk; difficulties in understanding and integrating various forms of sensory stimuli; and failure to develop normal speech, language or early social skills.

    Yet the overriding message of this production is that caring and aware parents and professionals can be extraordinarily effective in enabling children with autism to participate in the world around them.

  • "The information presented is concise, well organized, and serves as a good general introduction to the subject of autism in children. As with most Fanlight Productions titles, The Spectrum of Autism is well edited and reflects good production values. The information is accurate and useful to both health and lay audiences. Recommended." - Educational Media Reviews

  • "Excellent and informative - a short, accurate, well-documented exploration of autism." - Science Books & Films
