Description
Summary:Alastair Campbell is best known for his role as Tony Blair's formidable spin doctor but, away from the public eye, he has been dogged by crippling bouts of depression. Some days, just getting out of bed is too hard. Therapy and anti-depressant medication is helping him keep his head above water – but is that the best he can hope for? In this intensely personal film, Alastair asks whether radical new treatments can stop his depression. Encouraged by his partner Fiona and daughter Grace, he tries to find out if science can offer him – and the millions like him – the hope of living depression-free.
