This guy Dan Reynolds halted in the middle of a concert. As he was performing his 2012 superhit “Demons”. Which explains stuff about dark phases. He emphasized on its no shame in having a mental health problem. he said “I have a therapist. It does not make me broken. It does not make me weak,” he told his fans. “There are many people out there tonight who are holding it into themselves, not talking to their friends, their parents. If available to you, a therapist — don’t hold it in, talk to somebody. You are not broken.”-Dan Reynolds.

That’s why he is aware of the ground reality and trying to spread awareness at the best time he could do that i.e. during a concert in New York city’s Madison Square Garden. We should be aware of that Depression affects more than 15 million Americans every year and is the leading cause of disability in the U.S. for people ages 15 to 45.
