Nobody knows what these idols are going through in their lives.
We only see what they put out to the public, many idols could be suffering in silence, shouldn’t this be a lesson?
We don’t know hardly anything about these idols underneath the surface. Your words hurt them too.
As someone who is struggling with depressions, let me tell you something, you can’t tell the voices in your head go away, you can’t just ‘get over it’. Every day is a daily battle to stay alive, the tiniest thing can trigger the voices in your head telling you that you should kill yourself.
Jonghyun was so talented, an amazing performer, a great role model to many, he helped so many people without even releasing it. He supported the LGBTQ community, he fought for what he believed in.
At 9am this morning I was crying happy tears over a couple getting married and now since 12pm I have been crying over a death of a guy who helped me in my darkest of times.
For those saying “SM haven’t confirmed”. They are probably grieving too, they have lost a member of their family. His sister has confirmed it along with the police, that is all the confirmation you need. Let everybody grieve, respect their privacy.
Don’t expect Shinee to be doing variety’s or being active in the public at this time, they have lost their brother
Please, don’t struggle in silence, talk to someone, whether it be online or a friend or family member.
For anyone feeling suicidal or is extremely distressed by this situation my ask box and messages are open, I will reblog helplines for you all to contact if you need them.
Please, be kind, everyone you come across has a story and you may never what they have or are going through. It shouldn’t take a death to unite us, we should already me united as fandoms in giving our idols a place they can feel safe and loved.
Respect everyone grieving right now.
Rest In Peace Jonghyun, we will never forget you.
