It's Not All In Your Head: Unearthing the Deep Roots of Depression

It's Not All in Your Head is the story of one man's search for the roots of a puzzling depression that struck suddenly in midlife and reaches back decades to childhood spent in a dysfunctional alcoholic household. This humanistic portrayal dispels widespread myths about depression and exposes its pervasive stigma.
