A difficult conversation with my older brother Kevin,

Kevin had gone through a lot and Janet asked if there was something more the family could have done to help him through that tough time.

what do you think we missed as a family

Kevin assured his sister and the family that it is not their fault, adding they couldn't have known because he chose to hide it.

I don't think you guys could have picked up  on anything if I could be completely honest with you.. even the people closest to me couldn't see it

One thing for sure is that Kevin is glad that he chose to accept he had depression because after that he managed to deal with it and he is now okay.

dealing with it is a choice to either switch to put out on the light or sit and see what's in it and I am glad that  I did
