New WRAL documentary examines rising NC teen suicide rate, sheds light on a survivor’s lessons for others
Premieres Thursday Jan. 23 at 7pm on WRAL-TV

WRAL DocumentaryThe suicide rate among teens in North Carolina has doubled in the last decade. In the newest WRAL Documentary, “Out of the Darkness,” a young woman relates her own story of overcoming depression, anxiety and an attempted suicide, while highlighting the lessons she learned along the way. The documentary, which is both intensely personal and universally relatable, premieres on TV, web and streaming platforms Thursday, January 23 at 7 p.m.

Paige Masten struggled with depression and anxiety starting in 8th grade and attempted suicide at 16. In this first-person account, Masten reveals some of the challenges of dealing with depression, along with the difficulty in diagnosing and treating it. In the documentary, Masten’s parents talk about their own struggles to recognize and understand their daughter’s depression.

“Out of the Darkness” sheds light on Paige Masten’s journey to healing and offers lessons for others, not only for those dealing with anxiety and depression, but also the people around them who want to help, but don’t know how.
