Chen Kun suffered from depression for 5 years and took 10 years to come out of it, yet you want to give up on yourself?

Chen Kun, in this editor's eyes, is a very successful man. Although he is nearly 40 years old, in the eyes of this editor and many friends, his looks have not changed much; his gaze is still clear and moving, and when he smiles he can charm a whole crowd!

But if you look closely, you will find that there seems to be a trace of melancholy between this successful man's brows, as if he has suppressed a great many trivial worries in his heart. Those who do not know him would surely assume he has a good background and was born into nobility, otherwise where would his confidence and charisma come from?

On the contrary, Chen Kun actually started out with only a "silhouette" - a person born into a poor family with humble circumstances. One sentence can roughly explain how his life differs from the lives of many children of wealthy families: the things he has been through are things many children of wealthy families have never experienced.

A family of 5 lived in a small house of just over ten sq m, and even to use the toilet they had to walk several minutes away from home. In summer it was still bearable, but in winter they could only try to drink as little water as possible. After becoming famous, Chen Kun still remembered this experience vividly. He once said: "Happiness is actually very simple. You hold your pee for 2 hours while walking on the road, and the feeling you get when you finally find a toilet - that is happiness." Although these words sound a bit crude, when you think about it carefully, isn't happiness also made up of these little things in life?

After experiencing many unsatisfactory things in life, Chen Kun began to feel that this was not the life he wanted. He was merely constrained by family and by the pressures of life. His efforts and his gains could never be in direct proportion, which made him begin to doubt himself. This doubt, which came with his fame, pressed on him until he could hardly breathe, and this caused him to suffer from the terrible illness of depression.

Through countless sleepless nights, he doubted himself again and again. He did not even dare to go near the window, afraid that he might accidentally jump out. During this tormenting period, he constantly reflected on himself, constantly tried to understand himself clearly, and worked hard to reposition himself so that he would know where his true value lay. He tried hard to believe that his value was worth the reward others gave him.

After 10 years of painstaking effort, he did not give up on himself. Although the process was very painful, he persisted to the very end, came to know himself again, understood anew where his value lay, and regained the sunshine that a normal person should have.

Chen Kun spent 10 years walking out of the darkness of depression, so shouldn't you also work hard? Do not think that you are alone. In fact, behind you there are still thousands upon thousands of people who hope you will be well, who hope you can regain the sunshine, and who truly love you~
