Bare Against the Black Dog

Most of us feel a little low over the winter months, but for some people it is a time of severe mental illness. They suffer from SAD – Seasonal Affective Disorder.

British wartime Prime Minister, Winston Churchill wrote about his Black Dog of depression … it visits other people too!

Electrician Roy Dorset is one such person.

It has cost him his job, several times.

It has cost him his marriage, and as a consequence, access to his children, his home and most of his pension fund.

Now he stands at the threshold of a coping strategy some claim will change his life for the better. Has he got the balls to take the step?

And just as importantly, has the new woman in his life?
