Health Talk Special: Depression, isolation and illumination
Medical research indicates that spring is a peak season for depression and other mental health conditions. Currently, an estimated 350 million people worldwide are affected by depression – including more than 95 million in China alone. This means that roughly one in every 14 people experiences this “common cold” of mental health. CGTN’s Health Talk program presents a mental health special, featuring the renowned pianist Kong Xiangdong, who shares his authentic eight-year journey battling the condition. The program also brings together authoritative expert perspectives from Zhao Min, president of the Shanghai Mental Health Center; and Wang Gang, president of Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University. This aims to dispel the mental fog that traps the patients, and calls on their families and society as a whole to build a solid social support system, helping individuals to navigate through the darkness and toward recovery.
