Gerard has made Revolver Magazine’s 100 Greatest Living Rock Stars list! Page 86 of the January/February 2012 issue reads: “Emo pinup Gerard Way has always had a knack for pouring his heart out, but it’s his flair for the theatrical that makes him great. Way’s sense of imagery goes back to his art school roots, when he made his own comic books, and it fueled his group’s 2006 rock opera masterpiece, The Black Parade. All told, his star power is such that ardent fans followed him and My Chem even into their current electro “Na Na Na” incarnation.
“By the time My Chemical Romance took their places, the sun was scorching – but even the heat couldn’t distract from lead singer Gerard Way’s new fiery orange locks! “
Yesterday a very loved and good man committed suicide. He was the father of two and suffered from severe depression and bipolar disorder. We all get depressed from time to time and it sucks. Some of us, me included, have a mental illness that, if left untreated, can cause you to do things you wouldn’t normally do.
Please everyone reading this, if you feel depressed, lonely or suicidal, call someone. Talk to somebody that will talk back. It is nothing to be ashamed of nor is it anything to keep to yourself. There is always help. If your parents, spouse, or loved ones don’t understand or take you seriously, walk into a hospital anywhere near you and tell them. They will take your seriously.
Bottom line… don’t take matters into your own hands. There is always another option. You are loved by many even if it feels like you are not. There is always another way.
And if you know someone suffering from depression and are near the end of their rope… extend a hand and offer help, lend an ear, or at the very least tell someone who can help them.
