“He made me realize that I knew NOTHING about depression, NOTHING about mental health issues . I had this vague idea of what it was and thought embarrassing that I could help with bullshit insignificant , “she continued.” We loved each other, but it came with his difficulties. I was incredibly insecure when it came to him, I couldn’t even recognize myself. I don’t feel capable of to be the person he needed in his life. ” Becca Cho concluded her farewell message to her former boyfriend by explaining that “we need better support for those with mental needs” :”Byron just wanted everyone to be friends, so let’s be for each other in these difficult times.
