In both China and in the USA this causes not only feelings of helplessness and hopelessness, but the way in which the community reacts to such illnesses can also be a way of glimpsing into differing cultures. While some reactions from friends, families, and medical professionals are nearly universal, others can be very different in a new cultural context.Join Qin Xiaojie and Marco Brun del Re for a discussion on depression, hope, and some of the different ways that Americans and Chinese tend to view mental wellness and illness.
