REAL MEN DO CRY: A QUARTERBACK'S INSPIRING STORY OF TACKLING DEPRESSION AND SURVIVING SUICIDE LOSS

By Eric Hipple, Dr. Gloria Horsley, and Dr. Heidi Horsley

Winner of the 1st Place - President Picks Award
2nd Place - Adult Non-Fiction
Florida Publishers Association Conference, 2009

"This is an important book for everyone ---- fathers, husbands, sons, and the women who care about them.  Eric's message is powerfully delivered:  men with depression need to seek help.   It's not only the courageous thing to do; it can save lives."
--Robert Gebbia, Executive Director, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention--

"A True Pageturner: From Monday Night Football to Monday Night in Jail"

After his 15-year-old son, Jeff died of suicide, Eric fell into a debilitating downward spiral.  Bankrupt and jailed for drunk driving, he found the strength to seek therapy for his own depression and was able to make an amazing comeback.  Eric works with the University of Michigan Depression Center as outreach coordinator, where he travels nationwide speaking to teens and adults about ways to recognize the signs of depression and risks for potential suicide.  This pageturner chronicles Eric's transformation and amazing comeback. 

Real Men Do Cry includes practical checklists and resources for families living with depression and is a must-have resource for mental health counselors nationwide.
