Speak Out Topic I'm going to participate in a Speak Out program at my school, where I have to give a speech. We have to pick a topic - any - of our choice to talk about, three minutes or so tops. Well I need to give in a topic by tomorrow or after tomorrow maximum, and so far my teacher has advised me to talk about something I know from personal experience. So far, I could only think of depression: why do kids fall in to it, and how can it be stopped, the abuse of drugs, and thats it, but thats not personal experience. I was depressed for around a year, but I was in seventh grade and its unpleasnt to think of it. im a sophmore now, but ANYWAY, does anyone have any ideas for important topics, something that would get me picked? regardless of personal experience and such. This is really urgent and I really appreiciate good, well thought out answers.
Thank you. I'm fifteen and a sophomore, by the way, for those who didnt catch that the first time.

It's amazing what a simple Google search can find. ;)
Also, a topic doesn't necessarily have to happen directly to you for it to be a personal experience. For example, if you were doing terrorism, just because you weren't in New York City on 9/11 does not mean that event did not personally affect you.
Anyways, good luck! ]
