As many as one in five older Americans have late-life depression, which can lead to suicide. In this program, three senior citizens describe how they have coped with this life-threatening illness.

Medical commentary is provided by Charles Reynolds III, director of the Late-Life Depression Evaluation and Treatment Center at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine; psychiatrist Thomas Oxman, of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center; and Lucille Karatzas, director of Elder Services at Seacoast Mental Health Center.

The central message? Late-life depression is a treatable disease, not an inevitable part of aging.
