This documentary tackles the pressing issue of teen depression and
suicide from the perspective of adolescents themselves.
This primetime special features first-person stories from
adolescents 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, CRY FOR HELP provides a rare and important
look at mental illness among young adults. Through their own words,
the program documents their stories, their emotional struggles,
their lives in crisis. CRY FOR HELP affords a new understanding of
the teens' world. In doing so, it explores treatments, mental
health testing and community healing programs to give parents and
educators a basis for recognizing the warning signs of teens in
trouble.
