SUMMARY:Depression: Moving from Darkness to Light
DESCRIPTION:Join author Emmy Kavanagh as she discusses her new book of 
 poetry and photos\, "Depression: Moving from Darkness to Light."\n\nFrom 
 the author:\n\nDepression…..I have experienced and battled it for most of 
 my life. I have fought hard\, done many things\, talked to countless 
 Doctors and prayed many nights to overcome this disease. This book is a 
 written and pictorial look into my journey of moving from Darkness to 
 Light. The writings in this book are the real thoughts and feelings that 
 lived inside of me during my struggle. With the help of the brilliant 
 photographer Dave Heitur\, I tried to express my inside feelings outward 
 through the lens of his camera. I felt that it was important to tell my 
 story with as much honesty as possible. This was a hard project for me 
 because I had to tap into the depths of despair that I felt when I was 
 drowning in a sea of darkness. It has been a long time since I have felt 
 those feelings and I pray that I never feel them again. Mental illness is a 
 disease that so many people suffer from. Suicide has become an overwhelming 
 epidemic in this country and people need to be aware of the importance of 
 getting help. My hope is that my story will touch someone’s heart who is 
 either suffering or knows someone who suffers from mental illness. If you 
 are suffering\, please reach out for help. If just one person finds 
 strength and hope from this book\, all of my suffering will have been worth 
 it.
