It’s odd how history repeats itself. BSB is helping me in almost the exact way they did as a kid. I grew up in a very small town in rural Eastern Oregon, and from the ages of 13-16 when I finally had a license, I spent my summers essentially social distancing. My dad was at work and my mom had gone back to college. My parents lives 10 miles from town so it wasn’t an option to just walk to a friend’s house. During this time I had horrible anxiety and depression and it was BSB that got me through it. I would sit on my computer and build my BSB websites and chat on AOL to all my BSB friends. It’s so weird because this is pretty much what I am doing now to get through this. Although I no longer have BSB websites, I still am at home watching BSB videos, going through old BSB memories and chatting with my best friends across the world who I met through BSB cruises and concerts. And one of the few things lately that is giving me a glimmer of hope in dealing with my anxiety and depression is knowing that one day I’ll be able to see my friends and BSB again, even if it doesn’t happen this year like it is planned.

i was having like super vivid, super bad dreams from all the stress of the pandemic. It was really starting to affect my daily tasks. A few days ago, Istarted watching BSB content on YouTube before bed and haven’t had any bad dreams since.

I’m one of the people that temporary lost their job due to this crisis and because we have to stay inside in my country I try to dance with my kids on the music of the boys. To keep them active (when they aren’t working for school) and to keep me having a little bit of fun and not going insane with the homeschooling of 3 kids, a husband that asks a lot the whole day and the house holding that needs to keep spinning.

Backstreet Boys, the best life company I could ask for. My life soundtrack. I have thanked so many times for being in this world at the same time the Backstreet Boys are developing their career & legacy and I feel enormously grateful to be able to live their music, their concerts, meet the boys and, now, more than ever, on these uncertain days, all the memories, videos, photos, cruises, VIPs, shows, fan friends are helping me to cope with this quarantine and be able to appreciate all the moments I've lived and shared in this BSB amazing family!! Thank you boys!! Then, now & always I love you and I'll always choose you!!!! For many years & awesome moments to come!!!

Backstreet Boys has gotten me through these times by keeping a smile on my face listening to their music, keeping me happy and supporting others
