Readers Find Hope, Inspiration, and Even Humor, In Aftermath of Tragedy
The world just witnessed an entire US city ravaged by the destruction of Hurricane Katrina. Many lost loved ones, jobs, and homes, causing great emotional pain. Those suffering have experienced feelings of hopelessness, sadness, anger, and even thoughts of suicide -- all symptoms of depression. Many may not realize they are experiencing depression or that depression is a treatable medical condition. In fact, depression affects 19 million Americans.
After losing a brother-in-law to suicide, Jeff Alt and his wife, Beth, decided to take a hike. They hiked the 218-mile John Muir Trail across Californias Sierra Nevada mountain range as a depression awareness campaign to spread the word that depression is treatable (most suicides are the result of untreated depression). Their story is recounted in Alts new book, "A Hike For Mike: An Uplifting Adventure Across the Sierra Nevada for Depression Awareness."
