I mean, I know I won't do it, but I had some bad suicidal thoughts.

He was my inspiration and I loved him so much. To think that someone like him could be so insecure about his talent is simply insane, how are we, ordinary people, supposed to feel about ourselves then? 

I don't know, this just ruined my year so much and I can't stop crying.

I am so sorry that you feel this way. I know that his death was shocking and extremely upsetting. I, too, am upset about it, but I hope that you don't continue to let it make you think of committing such an act. That is not what he wanted at all. 


In my opinion, I think we all need to focus on his message, the words he lierally died to convey, which is to confront the stigma of depression and how depressed people are treated by society and even the doctors who are supposed to be helping them. He did not want others to end up like him, so you must understand that. I know I have no idea what he was really thinking, but that is how I undetstood his suicide note, which he very explicitly wanted to be made public. He wanted everyone to know that idols are also human beings and also have flaws. It was not his being insecure about his talent. It was about him being insecure in the world. At least, that is what it sounded like to me.


Anyway. I don't know if these are the words you want to hear, but this is what I have been telling everyone. Because I think this is what he trying to say, but no one was listening. 

I've been feeling really down after the news. I didn't expect it to effect me so badly, I find that I have to ignore it and forget about it completely otherwise I'll just be crying all over again.

I urge you please though, do not commit suicide. Perhaps its not my place to say but that is not what Jonghyun would want. If you are feeling suicidal please talk to someone,anyone - even me - a stranger! We don't really know what he was really thinking or what he experienced, I'm sure he knew of his talents but being under such immense fame and pressure when you already suffer from depression is enough for any human being to want to experience. Jonghyun brought us so much happiness and it is important to remember that. You are not alone, there are thousands of shawols out there rn who feel the same.
