I didn’t know Hana Kimura. I’d never seen her work. However, it's clear from the huge amount of messages that she touched many, many lives and left us after being in a very bad place.

I want to talk about mental health, about bullying and about responsibility for a moment.

Now, I don’t talk about this a lot but I have been in some very dark places in my life. The film Mars Attacks is forever ruined for me because I was watching it while I felt my heart slow down in what I felt was certainly the effects of a successful overdose.

I was wrong but there was a strange zen feeling that washed over me at the time that, looking back, is probably the most horrifying thing I’ve ever experienced.

There are many reasons this happened but I still remember beforehand frantically reaching out to people and just...

...knowing with absolute certainty that I had no one. I promised after that as long as my heart still beats, nobody would be that alone.

I’ve kept to that. Anyone is welcome to message me and while I can't be everywhere, I’ll endeavor to be there to support you however I can.

In my years in wrestling journalism I have encountered bullying, harassment and blatant lying to an obscene degree. For the last year or so every time I report something there is a pile on of people calling me a liar, telling me I got fired from jobs I never had and listing...

...examples of things I’ve never said. When something is proven correct, suddenly silence. There’s a strange catharsis to it, as happened with a report proven right last night.

While I’m quick to turn the other cheek, mute, block and report...

...(I received an update that someone I reported was blocked for hate speech recently and I have no recollection of reporting them) the attacks from within wrestling journalism have been some of the worst. People send DMs to my friends calling me a liar...

I’ve had abuse hurled at me for saying that NXT UK in Blackpool was great and that there was nothing wrong with the venue. Several prominent reporters have publicly attacked me or worse privately attempted to gate keep and sabotage my career. I am still in disbelief now.

It’s been tough for me. Those close to me know I’ve had a very rough time, particularly early this year when I came very close to shutting the whole thing down. Thankfully, I have some very good friends.

Everyone I know has had something to do with my positive mental health.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably partly to blame for me still being here. A huge thank you for that. Every view, every comment, every youtube subscription or follow. You’re showing you care and that fuels me.

I will never be able to thank you enough.

I want to take a moment to make some special thank yous to people who have been there for me in particular.

@TomCampbell - a shining example of everything I would like to be; so positive, so mature, always with the time to listen and care.

@AlexM_talkSPORT - the very opposite of gatekeeping. Professionalism, nurturing and support.

@stephaniemchase - constantly checking in when I was ill, giving me someone to vent to and let go and just being there when I need someone.

@navidschreibt - nobody has ever believed in me as much as you. You are magnificent and inspiring.

There are so many more I don't have room to list. You know who you are.

Finally, I want to end on a very simple message.

If you’re down, if you’re hurting, if you’re thinking that you’re reaching the end, remember this: you’re not alone.

You are never alone. Push past the bullies because we have your back. I've got you. #RIPHanaKimura
