Movie of the Week: Dealing With It by Gerson Lucero

"To me, I just don’t feel that way. I just feel lost. I really don’t know if everything will be alright. I’ve been dealing with depression ever since I was 8 years old."

“Dealing with It” by Gerson Lucero explores a young man’s struggle with depression and finding a caring community. (Mentor: Meryl O’Connor)
