Meet Prozac Pilot

Prozac Pilot!
Collin Hughes gave up his career as a pilot so he could get treatment for depression. He has a blog. He's now on the CNN home page. Watch his 'Coming out of the Hangar' video:




On CNN, Jeanne Meserve and Mike M. Ahlers write:
Meet Collin Hughes, a one-time rodeo cowboy turned jet pilot turned fledgling insurance agent, whose hope of returning to the sky has been reinvigorated by the new FAA policy. And who now hopes his story will embolden other pilots to address their depression.

Soldiers are in combat while taking antidepressants so why not?

Collin mentioned to me on Twitter that he is appearing on the Inside Edition show on Monday, April 19.
