- Profiles in mental health courage / by Kennedy, Patrick J.(Patrick Joseph),1967-author.; Fried, Stephen,1958-author.;
"Profiles in Mental Health Courage portrays the dramatic journeys of a diverse group of Americans who have struggled with their mental health. This book offers deeply compelling stories about the bravery and resilience of those living with a variety of mental illnesses and addictions. Several years ago, Patrick J. Kennedy shared the story of his personal and family challenges with mental illness and addiction--and the nation's--in his bestselling memoir, A Common Struggle. Now, he and his Common Struggle coauthor, award-winning healthcare journalist Stephen Fried, have crafted this powerful new book sharing the untold stories of others--a special group who agreed to talk about their illnesses, treatments, and struggles for the first time. When Kennedy's uncle, President John F. Kennedy, published his classic book Profiles in Courage, he hoped to inspire "political courage" by telling the stories of brave U.S. senators who changed America. In Profiles in Mental Health Courage, former Congressman Kennedy adapts his uncle's idea to inspire the "mental health courage" it takes for those with these conditions to treat their illnesses, and risk telling their stories to help America face its crisis in our families, our workplaces, our jails, and on our streets. The resounding silence surrounding these illnesses remains persistent, and this book takes an unflinching look at the experience of mental illness and addiction that inspires profound connection, empathy, and action. In this book, you'll meet people of all ages, backgrounds, and futures, across politics and government, Hollywood and the arts, tech and business, sports and science--some recovering, some relapsing, some just barely holding on, but all sharing experiences and insights we need to better understand. You'll also meet those trying to help them through--parents, siblings, spouses, therapists, bosses, doctors, and friends who create the extended families needed to support care and wellness. The personal stories they share with Kennedy and Fried are intimate, sometimes shocking, always revealing. And they are essential reading for caregivers, family members, policymakers, and the general public--just as they are for those who often feel alone in experiencing these challenges themselves."--

- Parallel lines / by St. Aubyn, Edward,1960-author.;
"It's the summer of 2021, and Sebastian is in treatment following a breakdown that has left him grappling with his fragile grip on reality and his persistent hunger to connect with the biological mother who abandoned him as a child. His therapist, Martin, is facing challenges of his own, including his adopted daughter's tenuous relationship with her own biological mother -- a predicament that makes Sebastian's struggle feel uncannily proximate to her own. Olivia is producing a radio series on catastrophic natural disasters, which itself seems to be running parallel to the events unfolding in her personal life, as her best friend Lucy faces a grave diagnosis, and her husband, Francis, pursues his mission of re-wilding the world. Over the course of the next year their fates collide in outrageous and poignant ways, as each of their destinies is revealed in a marvelous new light."--

- Deep rooted [videorecording] : exploring the mental health crisis in Canadian agriculture / by Cronk, Lynn,on-screen participant.; Norman, Kole,on-screen participant.; Raymond, Chantal,on-screen participant.; Boersma, Darryl,on-screen participant.; Wickiam, Van,film producer.; McDonnell, Kyle,film director.; McIntyre Media,film distributor.;
Featuring: Lynn Cronk, Kole Norman, Chantal Raymond, Darryl Boersma.The film follows four agriculture producers in discussing their mental health and how it relates to farming. There are an immeasurable number of stressors facing farmers and ranchers across the country, from weather and climate change, through to succession planning and farming legacy. Through these four agriculture producers, we get a glimpse into how and why this crisis persists in the farming community. With the help of experts and researchers, Deep Rooted also explores farm culture and its relationship to mental health. Stigmatization around mental health; depression, anxiety, stress and even suicide, continues to be perpetuated in the agricultural community, only deepening the taboo nature of seeking mental health care. The harsh reality is that those working in the agriculture industry continue to be one of the most vulnerable and underserved populations in relation to their mental health. Deep Rooted seeks to connect with farmers and agriculture workers; to give them a voice and humanize their struggle to bring attention to a problem that continues to worsen.E.DVD.
