When Wil was struggling with depression, a therapist said just the right thing
Briefly

"I remember for days, even weeks, not feeling like any progress was happening... then I noticed one of my therapists walking toward the community room. She said, ‘I bet I'll beat you to the community room.’ That small act triggered something inside of me. And I didn’t want to be beaten. For the first time in months, I felt I had a purpose."
"I remember sitting down in this therapy session that she was leading shortly thereafter and feeling like a spark of life had been ignited in me by her simple act. His therapist helped him want to live again, not just to live, but to thrive."
