Gerard Way talking about depression (Bamboozle 5/5/07)

"Something we've been saying on this tour, is that sometimes the world could be a really ugly place, right? It's not always really pretty, its ugly, people's feelings get hurt. Sometimes its terrible, but its also a really beautiful place that we all share together, and if you ever feel depressed or hurt in any way and you(some jerk yells) find yourself feeling very desperate find somebody that you trust, that you can talk to, be it a teacher, a parent, a best friend, a therapist at school, there's lots of free programs you guys can find people to talk to. But the most important thing is no matter what, no matter what happens to you, no matter how desperate you feel, never resort to violence."

There's a quote from that goes: "There is nothing worth hurting yourself over" and that quote and things like what he was saying in this video are seriously what keep me from doing things to myself that will hurt me. This is why he's on my walls. This is why i watch him on youtube all the time. Because he means hope. THEY mean hope.
