Pain

Abstract

In this program three youths tell their stories about mastering complex pain and returning to wellness. Whether or not their pain is visible, or is associated with a known medical condition, they provide unique perspectives on minimizing the impact of pain on daily living. All have worked with a multidisciplinary health care team, using pharmaceutical, physiotherapy and psychological strategies, yet they differ on the aspects they found most helpful. These stories are validating and inspirational for youth with complex pain, their families, teachers and care providers.

This is an award winning DVD at the 2006 7th International Symposium on Pediatric Pain Mediafestival.

Depression

Abstract

"Ever since Winston Churchill popularized the term Black Dog to describe the hellish bouts of depression he experienced for much of his life, it has become the shorthand for the disease that millions of people suffer, often in shame and silence.

"I Had A Black Dog is Matthew Johnsone's illuminating, moving, and ultimately uplifting book provides insights into what it is like to live with a Black Dog and the strength and support that can be found within and around us to tame it. Black Dog can be a terrible beast, but bringing him out of the shadows is the first step towards recovery"--from the back cover.
