Depression sucks!!!! This Saturday we will have a memorial service for my nephew who passed away at only 22. He pretty much lived at our house every weekend till he was around 18 and started hanging out with some questionable people. As time went on we saw him less and less, but saw from afar him getting in trouble and posting dark things on social media. We watched as he became more and more depressed and it seemed that nothing anyone did really helped. I saw first hand how important it is for a kid to have his biological father in his life, my brother and father in law and myself and wife did a lot for him but he would mention his father which for a big part of his life was in jail or never around. I used to think suicide was a selfish act, but seeing first hand how depression affects people I can't really say that anymore. I have never fought demons like that, and the one thing I have taken out of this situation is whenever someone I love has depression that whenever they cross my mind I will shoot them a text or call to let them know I'm thinking about them and if they need anything.
