"Mark and Nanette Potter are a “picture perfect” couple. High school sweethearts, married for over 30 years, two children, and four grandchildren. When Mark began a downward spiral into severe depression, the uncertainties and lack of knowledge on the subject sent the family into a desperate search for help. Mark talks about his darkest depression, and Nanette shares her role as a caregiver and what you can do to get help for someone you love. The two of them together, bring the battle of severe depression full circle. Their message will really drive it home for many people."
