This video follows the story of Zach, a 22-year-old college student who had many successes as a student and athlete but who spiraled into depression after being rejected by the colleges he hoped to attend. As his depression worsened, he planned to take his own life, which was averted by a last-minute call to a friend who then called Zach’s parents. The video explains how Zach turned himself around and how he is doing since that time.--Ministry of Education website.
