Peter Macris: A Gift or a Curse - Depression
Aug 25, 2022 Season 3 Episode 8
The C G Jung Society of Melbourne

Beginning and ending with personal stories of his experience with depression, Peter guides us through two very different conceptualisations: A modern psychological approach that focuses on getting through depression or depression as somewhat of a curse, and a Jungian imaginative approach that takes note of the generative qualities of ‘transformational’ depression. With authenticity, experiential and academic knowledge, Peter conveys the hard earned and positive qualities to be found in a depression that takes us on a journey toward individuation and integration.
