I have fought mental illness for many years now, and I'm far from out of the woods. I still don't feel good enough. I still don't know how to love myself, even though I know I should. But I know that it will get better. I have come such a long way from where I was. I just want everyone to know that it does get better, and I know if you're anything like I was you're sick of hearing it but it is true. You are loved, you are worthy, you are enough. I'm proud of us
Wow, this must have taken so much work and time and effort and LOVE! Thank you so much! Remember to always keep fighting and that the wound is where the Light enters us. Big love from South Africa ❤🌟 #SPNFamily
As Personal Support Worker I take of people for living being a wife and having a son it is very easy to lose my myself. And to take care of myself. I struggle with depresion and axiety. When i work nights I watch old conferences. I love kind word Jared and Jensen say to their fan. To know that Supernatural show is inspiration for fans to keep fighting that in important. When i am dark place i feel like Jared and Jensen into the dark place say it is ok. You got this!
Been fighting depression, and anxiety since about 2009. Im 35 now. Supernatural has always had such a massive impact on me, in a positive way. I just wish i had people in my life, like the ones sam and dean had but at least i have Jensen and Jared and everything they've done. If not for the life lessons learned from Supernatural, man i think I'd have been gone a long time ago.
You are not alone! Family don’t ends with blood. If you need to talk, if you need a shoulder to cry on, if you need to stay silent but not alone reach out. If you need DM me or anyone one else in the SPN family, we got you
I wish Chester Benington would do this and inspired me and his many fans too! I loved him as a big brother and his suicide broke me when I thought I could not be more broken and miserable. sadly, he had it worse, I think. So glad that Jared made it♥
Yes, he voluntarily went to an inpatient clinic in 2015. We didn’t learn this until he mentioned it on the “Overcome with Justin Wren” podcast in Sept 2021. A short clip of that is at 15:32 of this AKF video.
What are the chances that this unknown thing he's struggling with, is actually queerness? I had this depressive ideation thinking queerness was something to do with other people, until one moment in Barcelona when the "Ace" revelation struck me. I think he could be Bi - which is something that didn't use to make sense to me, I was like, "Well can't people make up their minds?" 😅 I'm sorry for that... it's obviously as beautiful as any other. Also, the bullying or rather the bad advice I received about dealing with it likewise made me feel I wasn't "tough" enough - back in those days, we were advised to "not react in any way" because supposedly the bullies seek a reaction from you. The problem is that puts the shame on us instead of the perpetrator, and we had zero support.
I don't wanna diagnose someone I don't know but based on his personality and how he acts sometimes I think there is a chance that he might have ADHD, he really does fit into many of the criteria, and people with ADHD have an increased risk of developing depression and anxiety in life (especially if undiagnosed)
