Abstract

INTRODUCTION Having personal Experience battling Depression and Alcoholism for around 4 years. I look to share my experience, my darkest days, the effect on the soul, body and mind that Depression causes. I look to share how I pulled myself from the dark back into the light, I will explain the relationship between depression and alcoholism. In order to help and support those suffering we must have a better understanding of depression. We can lose limbs, there are prosthetics for that, there is no prosthetic for a lost soul. I hope my talk will allow us to move forward with a new understanding of depression in order to help us change the world one life at a time.
