Proposed topic: depression
Time:
Purpose: I currently have to choose a topic for both an English paper and a Public Speaking presentation. My future academic/professional pathway will deal with biochemistry, specifically neurochemistry and psychopharmacology. I recently suffered a bout of depression.
Audience: Currently depression is far more widespread than most people understand or admit. Many people suffer from depression silently, even though depression is one of the most easily treatable mental illnesses in the world today. In addition to satisfying my instructor, this topic may save many people from suffering by giving them information to help them seek treatment.
Context: This topic will satisfy requirements for two of my current classes, while also allowing me to research a subject directly related to my chosen major.
Space:
Purpose: This topic will make more people aware of depression and its treatability.
Audience: After learning more about depression, many people will be more likely to seek treatment. I can also use this to explore a topic to which I have personal ties.
Context: I am a resource as someone who has suffered from depression, I also have access to medical professionals who will be willing to help me. My teachers will approve of the topic.
