The death of Liam Payne It came to me like a bucket of cold water. The member of One Direction He died after falling from the third floor. Suicide? A fatal balcony when you jump into your hotel pool? We don’t know, but everything indicates that drugs and depression They surrounded him. How important it is to know how to seek help!
Apparently, Liam was fighting against those invisible demons that, on many occasions, hide behind smiles and applause. Have you seen Payne’s videos these days at the door of his hotel in Buenos Aires serving the fans?
Depression and addictions They do not distinguish neither fame nor fortune nor talent. Names like those come to mind Amy, Whitney or Stephen from Boyzone… And in a world where the image seems to be everythingdepression puts on makeup, goes out and yes, smiles too.
Our idols, in addition to entertaining us, also reflect our struggles, vulnerabilities and the realities of hundreds of people who are going through similar moments. We should not forget that behind every photo in instagram, after each concert or appearance on TV, there is a person dealing with the same things emotions and pressures than any other.
The relentless judgment on the networks can also become the straw that breaks the camel’s back of someone on the brink of the abyss. After each comment or like There are people who feel and carry their struggle and, sometimes, drugs and alcohol they become a refuge for those who feel they cannot speak: a momentary and destructive consolation.
In the end, everything translates into mental and emotional health. We need a society that talks about depression and understands that it can be disguised. Help without judging. Let him know that a smile does not always mean happiness and that a simple act of kindness can become the anchor needed for someone to stay afloat.
