1 year of akf [positivity!!]

Hi, it's tyler
i don't know if this is in the right section, if not staff could you please move it?
Happy first birthday, Always Keep Fighting.
Thank you for continuing to save my life on a daily basis and reminding me that there are warm, kind hearted people in this world. I will never be able to put into words what this whole movement has done for me. I hope a lot of you also find strength in the fact you are not alone in your struggles, and there is nothing wrong with you or the fact you may be struggling.
So, the Always Keep Fighting campaign is something I've been following since it started. It's a campaign that's now at it's 1 year anniversary. It is led by Jared Padalecki. It's to raise money and spread awareness for mental illnesses, addiction, and so on.
Jared has been working hard to de-stigmatize mental illness, addiction, etc through his #AlwaysKeepFighting campaign. Fans recently acknowledged Jared's openness to be a face for an often isolating illness, reminding us there's strength in numbers. It's helped me, and many other people. I thought it would be nice to shared it with everyone here,
you can watch videos on Jared's facebook page

Jared posted a video earlier
and he's currently doing another represent, that's also on his facebook/twitter page.
Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins also did a campaign that ended a few days ago, the You Are Not Alone campaign. I'm actually wearing my tshirt right now. It was to raise money for a for fans by fans crisis network. To raise awareness and support for mental illness, addiction and so on .the spn family. I am actually getting trained to be on the network, there's going to be irl places and online places for people in need.
these causes are very dear to my heart and i don't like putting myself out there that often so I really hope you guys look into this always please remember that you should always keep fighting because you are not alone. and if you ever need help with anything please please message me. remember that we all have stories, and they should not be a competition.
I want people to also remember to be kind to each other. Stop the bullying, harsh words, and judgement. It can be really hard for some to learn to love their self when they are constantly put down. We need to learn to lift each other up. Even strangers. Just be kind. It can mean the world to someone.
