Instead of a long post going into each sessions I attended I figured you’re probably just best watching them when they’re on YouTube as it was an excellent conference.

I’ve been suffering from depression and severe anxiety for the past 6 months now. It’s costing me my girlfriend, job and most importantly my life. I woke up yesterday with my heart pounding out of my chest, I got ready for work and then threw up, I felt dizzy and very scared.
