I read what Anna Shinoda had wrote on national meme day and it was good. That’s what I’ve been trying to tell people in my family. That it wasn’t his fault, it was depression or it was a relapse. I think everyone should go out and read what she wrote: Getting Better | Anna Shinoda

That is so true! I’ve been on both sides. I am a survivor (2) of suicide and worst of all I lost my brother to suicide. And from first hand I can promise you when it gets to that point it is no longer you in the driver seat. Whether depression and/or addiction plays the role. These things take alot out of you. Fighting this battle everyday, fighting the urge to numb yourself of the pain your own mind inflicts on you daily. Trying to silence those voices constantly telling you lies, all while focusing your energy on the things that you love . I promise u it takes almost everything you have to keep that smile up. For the millions of us struggling with addiction and mental illness it’s a constant battle. These illnesses will hit you hard at any moment of weakness and sadly sometimes they do win. Still even now I have no idea why I survived twice and yet my brother and Chester did not.
