First of all, I want to thank the Boys for being straight forward with this situation and I want to thank AJ for doing the right thing. I was upset and crying during the whole show today and seeing Kevin almost crying, Howie and Brian choking up, and Nick not saying a word and wiping a tear really, really got to me. But what totally made me lose it was AJ's song that he wrote. Listening to those words and looking at his face was so heart breaking. You could really see the pain in his eyes and hear the hurt in his voice. I met BSB backstage in June and he is the sweetest guy, as well as the rest of the Boys. He was all smiles that day and stayed strong for his fans and put on a great show even though he was going through all of this. He has such strength and courage to admit his problem and to get all the help he can to overcome this and come back an even stronger person than he already is. And I am so proud of him for doing so. AJ, I know you can and will get through this. Know that all of your fans are supporting you 100% right now and give you all the love we can give. My every prayer goes out to you. Good luck and God bless. We love you!

We love you - all of you. AJ, what a brave man you are for asking for help - that takes such guts. Kevin, Nick, Howie and Brian - thank you for proving you're the men we always knew you were. You all truely set yourselves apart and that makes us love you more.AJ - I lost my Dad last year. He was the center of my universe. Its so hard to see the rainbow for the rain sometimes. I was surrounded by people who loved me, and yet, I had never felt more alone in my life. We're all here for you - sending you our love and good thoughts. Let us give back to you what you've given us all these years...our hearts. -Michelle

AJ~The video of you singing today and TRL was so sad, the way you could see the tears building up in your eyes, made me cry myself. I'm glad you are getting help, your strong for doing that and you made a good decision..you WILL be better. I was supposed to see you the day after the news hit the public, for my 16th birthday. I am not upset or mad because I can't see you guys, but I'm glad your getting help..and to me thats all that matters. I've struggled with depression myself, and I still am, my parents were divorced when I was four and my dad was taken away to jail for hitting me. I know its definatly one of the worst feelings in the world, and I'm glad your getting help for it. I just wish you the best, and I'll pray for you everyday. You are strong for doing this and now I know you guys really do have problems and don't lead a perfect life..but I know you'll get better. Best wishes ***

To AJ and all the BSB,
I am very PROUD of you AJ for being a man and taking this step to getting better. I know it's not going to be easy but you have millions of people behind you on this. I know you're going to be back soon and even better than before but if not, all I and i'm sure the other fans care about is your health and well being. I just wish this didnt have to happen but it did and nothing's gonna change that. You can't change your past but you can change your future and I know you will for the better because I know you love to perform and sing and I thank you for showing the world your gift. To the rest of the guys...thank you for not lying to your fans. That shows that you think highly of us and that you do care about us as well. BE stronge for AJ guys although I know you will. AJ, your family, and the rest of BSB are in my prayers. I love you and so do the rest of your fans.

Dearest AJ
I don't know if you will read this but oh well... here is my story:
*The Backstreet Boys have to do an important annoncement* that's what Carson said. I totally flipped out. I waited till the guys came out and said what was happening to you. AJ I am feeling so close to you right now, more than ever, and I pray for you to have the help and the support you need to get through this, to have such things I never got when my grandma passed away and I was in your same state. I know the feeling. You feel like your whole world is over. Like you don't care about doing anything else but stare in front of a picture, or looking around your room. And you feel depressed. You start doing the most stupid things, like over eating, drinking, smoking *like I did*. Nobody was there for me back then. My parents were working overtime to pay bills, my older sister was studing away. My so-called friends just didn't understand my feelings. They said sh!t like "she was old..." and stuff, not understanding what meant to me grew up with her like my second mom and the only one who spent time with me when my parents and sister weren't home, and it was most of the time. Nobody was there but you, the BSB, and you showed me in so many ways that my world wasn't over, that I still could do the things I loved to do, and my grandma would always watch me from Heaven. And I went on, and I am here right now. I did this, you can do this too! You're not alone! B-rok, Nicky, Dee and Kev are there for you. They showed their love for you, they have been there and they will be there. And the fans will be there too. Because you have done so much for us, you have always been *the one*. Now here we are when YOU need help. And we are just wishing to give that to you, maybe just praying for you to get better soon. I'm proud of you because you have the strenght to ask for help. Many don't and the things keep getting worse. But you did, and there's another thing I have to thank God for. Bone, AJiggity, Age, AJ, Alex.... No matter what, we love you.

Wow Alex...Who ever knew things could/would turn out like this...It is something that no one ever expected, and something that everyone hoped would never happen...esp. to someone like you. You are a wonderful guy, and deep down, I know you know this too. This is just one stepping stone in your life that you will overcome, just one test you know you'll pass with flying colors, just one whirlwind of collected feelings and emotions that help you find the "real" you. You know how much we love you and that no matter what you feel, you're not going through this alone. We love you Alex and nothing will ever change that.

Hi AJ I have been a BSB fan for 5 years and if you read this i just want you to know that i have been to rehab and i have depresion so i kind of know what your goin through it gets hard but then it gets easer after a while Im still going through my hard times and Im not made that my concert got canculedor how ever you spell it cause i will see you 9-20-01 i think in detroit michigan at least you know you have problem some people go through life not even caring that they have a problemand die becuase of it so im happy you care heres a little poem i wrote when i relized i have a problem I WONDER
Often I wonder
How I got to this point
It seemed so hoples
And then got worse
That times is far away
Mostly I think
It must have been a dream
All of those things
Never happened to me
But I know they did because the
Experience molded me to how I am
And yet to this day
I wonder

AJ:
hey hun!
well, i know that your going to be getting a lot of get well type things, but i still felt like i should write to you and tell ya myself that i hope you get better.
i've been through a lot by listening to you and the other guys. anytime that i would get into a fight with my mom or one of my friends, i would go put on your CD and everything would be alright. when i got Black & Blue, "How Did I Fall In Love With You" brought me to tears. Everytime that i've seen you guys, it just makes me feel so much better.
even though i've never been to a rehab center for something like you, i have had to go see people because i've been depressed. itz nothing like yours, but i know to a point how you feel, and trust me, if you could admitt that there was a problem, you WILL be fine. i didn't think that there was anythign wrong with me, and now i feel so much better.
i wish you the best of luck and i give you all the love in the world while you get better. your fans have, and will always, love in away that no one else can. so no matter how depressed you get, i hope that it would be able to help you a bit to know just how many lives you've touched, not just from singing, but for being there without knowing it for so many people. you'll get outta this, don't worry.love,
Amy
