TW: suicide
I was suicidal as a teen/young adult. There were only two things that kept me going: baseball and MST3k. MST3k made me laugh, and it gave me something to look forward to. I have told everyone I know that MST3k helped save my life, and I truly mean it.
Same. A few years back I went through my worst (at that point) bout of depression. It was so severe I ended up in the mental hospital. But what got me through the months of crying in bed and struggling with every bit of my being to not kill myself were episodes of MST3K. That’s when I first found the show. And I watched them again and again and again. They gave me something to focus on and smile at.
When I wasn’t watching MST3K, it was Are You Being Served? So, yeah. Crow, Servo, Mike, Joel, and Mr Humphries kept me alive for months until I was checked into the hospital and was helped.
You hold on to what you can. You find the thing that allows you to survive. Even if other people wouldn’t understand. Find it and hold tight until you can help.
