We will have a candid conversation about the signs, symptoms and prevalence of Depression.
Clinical depression goes by many names-- depression, "the blues," biological depression,
major depression. But it all refers to the same thing: feeling sad and depressed for weeks or months on end ( not just a passing blue mood), accompanied by feelings of hopelessness, lack of energy, and taking little or no pleasure in things that gave you joy in the past. A person who's depressed just  "can't get moving" and feels completely unmotivated to do just about anything. Even simple things--
like getting dressed in the morning or eating--become large obstacles.

Mr. Joe L. Morton

 Joe Morton will talk to Betty Lamarr about how it feel to
not  have the love of his father. Joe remembers the day that his
dad drove off in his white Chevy convertible. Joe was 4 years old and the last  time he saw his dad.  Joe will talk about the void of a fathers love and, how it opened his eyes to the importance of re-connecting with his 2 sons. 
Tune in Saturday to hear this sad but true story.
Unfortunately, there are many children living in the same city
 as their dad that will never make the connection.
 Sadly, 42 years had passed  before would see, or hear a word from his father.  Imagine, 42 years later Joe attending his dad's funeral. Attending a funeral for a man that lived in the same city with his son that never  called to ask how are you?
