I have been reading up on so much of what happened with Jonghyun and I agree with all of you, it's a tragedy. Anyone who has to live with the darkess that lived in him for so long does well to even get out of bed. I've been there and...well, it's not a place you want to be. Nor should anyone wish another to be there. So, listen to me and understand where I'm coming from...

Severe depression isn't something to play around with or ignore. The fact that he was able to pull himself together to perform, record and promote is a miracle in and of itself so his fans should be so proud of his accomplishments. It takes an unbearable amount of strength to make it with that kind of pain. Think twice before you tell someone to get it together or deal with it. Sometimes, you just can't and that's okay. Reach out to someone. Don't be afraid to say "I'm scared" because the beauty of humankind is that we can pull together and lend a hand, a shoulder to cry on, or an ear to speak to.

There are also resources you can find such as comfort rooms, free texting services, and forums where you can talk to people who have been there and who've found their strength. Keep your hands busy with anything that distracts you from the hurt. I know it's hard but, human life isn't disposable. His life wasn't disposable and neither is yours. We all carve unique, different paths and we're all covered in cracks and scars. And you know what? It's a beautiful thing.

So, expand your empathy and help anyone who needs it. Be kind. Be thoughtful. Be careful with your words and make sure you're speaking on grounds you know well. For me, this is something that hits home a little too hard. Still, it hurts enough to motivate me to help anyone that wants to talk. I don't care if you just want to rant or delve right into it, I'll listen to you. I might not be online very much but, I'll always respond. I'm sure there are others who will listen to you as well and treat you the way you deserve- like a human being.

I'm always here and hope everyone is being safe and taking care of themselves. Your mentality is so fragile so, take care of it. Do what you must- just stay. You're loved so, so much.
