Kevin Breel burst into the public's awareness when at 19 his TED talk became a worldwide phenomenon. Through the lens of his own near suicide, he shared his profoundly vulnerable story of being young, male and depressed in a culture that has no place for that. Now, inhis first ever book, Kevin Breel dives in to the deep and dark parts of his childhood.

In a memoir that is both raw and real, Kevin explores what it means to grow up. Dealing with dysfunction, loss and an intense battle with depression, Kevin brings the reader on a ride that is bumpy and brutally honest. Through all of it, there is a powerful story about hope, love and what it means to be human. BOY MEETS DEPRESSION is a book that illuminates how the real challenge in life isn't trying to be perfect, it's accepting the dark parts of ourselves.
