The views of this blog are also much much more than I had ever expected. Just hope that it's helping others in the same situation too. Even if it helps just one person :)
What I wanted to do was post up messages of support from people. In a way to appreciate and again just to show others that having the right people around you can make a transition slightly easier.
Please bare in mind the ones I am going to post are emails. I have received lots of texts and support from friends face to face.
I was browsing your blog and I read something that made me a little sad.
“Which leaves me wondering, time and time again. What's the point of me? Down to my very existance? What is the point...”
The point of you is to be you. A lot of the time, when you’re suffering from things like depression, it seems like there really is no point to anything. It sometimes feels like you’ll never get over it and you’ll completely lose yourself to it, but you won’t. Depression may make you feel like nothing, but you’ll get through it and you’ll be the stronger for it. Being battered and bruised constantly by your own mind gives you a strength that others can’t imagine. There are some parts of the human soul that can only be found through suffering, parts that you can cherish and that can give you more than you could ever envisage.
And the point of your existence extends to others as well; you make people happy just by being alive. There are people who would be lost without you in their life; you always mean the world to someone.
And posting your story online? So many people will benefit from you sharing your stories, your feelings and your thoughts. You’re an integral part of the world, you help others, you contribute to the betterment of society.
You’ve been through a lot and are going through a lot, it would seem, and you’re still here and still doing well.
You should be immensely proud of yourself.
You should be immensely proud of yourself.
It might seem arrogant of me to assume that I can just attempt to alleviate any of your problems like this. If that’s the case, then I’m sorry, I just felt genuinely unhappy when I read you contemplating the uselessness of your existence.
To you, Zak, I wish the smoothest course of life possible.
Sincerely,
...
I fuckin love you!
