Nines: Please stay hydrated and drink water throughout the day. Adding a slice of lemon and/or orange to make it more flavorsome can also help detox your system and provide you with the benefits of Vitamin C. Eat throughout the day, three substantial healthy meals. If you cannot manage that, at least snack on some fruit or nuts. Take your medicine. This is not negotiable. Gavin: Hey. I know life is pretty shit for you right now. ‘N it’s okay to feel like crap. Some days are... a bitch, y’know? It’s hard. So fuckin’ hard. But you’re not alone, alright? You got Tin-Can, you got Anderson, you got plastic prick over there... ‘N you got me. I got your back, ‘n I’ll always have your back. You’re not alone. ‘M here. You wanna know somethin’? Just don’t tell the others I said this, I got a reputation to uphold here.. but you’re fuckin’ amazing. You’re standing right here even though you feel like you’re drowning. That’s strength. And don’t give me that bullshit look. I know what it’s like to haul your ass outta bed and feel like it’s the hardest thing you’ve ever done. And it is, y’know? You’re standing right before my eyes... You’re brave. You’re stronger than me. You’re amazing. You’re here now aren’t ya? So let’s kick some ass. Together. Hank: Hey kid. Uh, I’m not good at this shit and I’m the worst person to be taking advice from. I’m nothing but a grumpy old man who drinks his sorrows away; don’t be like me. ‘Cause it doesn’t work. Listen... I’m here for you, got it? And if life becomes too...overwhelming... it’s okay to take a day. Take a few days. However long you need. It’s okay to be grumpy ‘n’ not smile... Tell you what, I’m plannin’ on takin’ Sumo for regular walks ‘cause he’s gettin’ as fat as me. Why don’t you join me? Could use the company. Connor: Hello there! It concerns me deeply that you’re going through a hard time right now. If there is anything I can do, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I will try to understand and help you through it. I admire you, did you know? Your existence is valid, I’m glad you’re alive and that you’re here. I think this world would be less cheerful, less bright if you weren’t in it. I’m still discovering the world and trying to understand it but I do know one thing; I’m glad you’re here. Perhaps some music might help? I couldn’t help but notice Hank already spoke to you. Did he suggest any music? No? Okay, well how about some of these songs? You may have already heard them but I’m still new to music. Perhaps we can spend an afternoon making a playlist together?

I tried to do something nice for Mental Health Day with our favourite boys... I go through a lot of depression, PTSD and anxiety so if you ever need a new person to turn to, please don’t hesitate to come chat to me. Or you can ask to talk to one of our favourite Detectives. I know it sounds strange, but sometimes we take comfort in our characters and if it’ll help, let them be there. The DCPD’s doors (this blog) will always be open for you. The communication line (inbox) will always be open no matter the time of the day or night. Please don’t feel like you’re alone; because you’re not. Please remember to drink some water, eat something healthy and take your meds. And if you don’t feel like smiling or getting out of bed, that’s okay. Take all the time you need to recover and heal your soul.
