Affliction versus Depression and Anxiety

[CitM]

This is really in response to the SPN family. I'm so sorry that affliction found you. The death of Matt Riley convinced me that there is more to life and death, depression and anxiety then I can comfortably explain, or would even be believed.

But I don't think Matt Riley took his own life so much as he was driven to it. And I am so sorry that people have been forced to endure that.

I was driven to suicide once. And I fought for my life. And I keep fighting for a good future, against what feels like evil would have me be. I know you are all fighting too.

I'm not trying to break you up, so much as hoping that when YOU... YOU DECIDE to end the show, you will stay together to cheer each other on, and bounce amazing ideas off each other and do even more great things. Trust me, family stays together, fights for survival together, and whatever it is that you are going through, I hope you can believe that I am fighting and also pulling for you. I know that you are for me too.

So many good people, so many good families of all kinds, so much good in this world. But there are those who would choose to do nothing but destroy because they don't care and they are unwilling to listen to reason, and I'm not one of them.
