Powerful Documentary Films at HealthyPlace.com

HealthyPlace.com unveiled four of the most powerful mental health videos you have ever seen. These are stories about sexual molestation, rape, eating disorders and teens trapped in abusive relationships.

What makes these mental health films different and so moving is that they describe the impact of physical and sexual violence and misperceptions on their victims. And for the most part, these stories are told in the victim's or sufferer's own words.

You can watch them using your windows media player. We've also set up special bulletin boards for your feedback.
