I’d like to mention it’s ok to thank Jared if his efforts with AKF have helped you. Jensen too. That let’s them know they’re appreciate and that they’re really helping. It’s when people go into these detailed descriptions of they’re terrible situation that is not ok, and very stressful for people who are not profesaionly prepared to hear. And even stressful for those who are in that field.

Hi! not sure if this is the same anon or not but i completely agree with you! It meant the world to me that I was able to tell Jared he inspires me, that I was able to thank him. And while obviously I can’t be 10% positive that someone saying that to him doesn’t have any ill effects (for whatever  reason) I can’t imagine that it ever would. And yep, I also agree with you thats as far as it should go. I encourage people to thank the people that inspire them, that helped them through a difficult time, that hell maybe you just like seeing their face i dont know. But there are plenty of ways to thank a person that has helped you througha difficult time without burdening them with a difficult story. And I know its naive to think that Jared (and Jensen and the rest of the cast) will never be the recipient of an emotional story or of someone breaking down, I do hope to hear about them less often
