hi a.j,
my name is ashley and i kinda know what your going through. i was reading the news and it said that you grew up without your father. well i kinda have the same thing. my father didnt want anything to do with me but i had a dad shortly. but now i have my step father and its kinda hard to talk to him about things. my real father came into my life when i was 8 in 1997. it was hard to take to him. he had his own family and i didnt really fit. he had 3 boys then and a evil wife who i like to call "my step-monster." well he shortly left. and it was hard to really get close to my step dad davidi didnt want to let him in and then leave. so i really didnt have a father influence for a while. i still am the same now but older. its hard though knowing that you have a father and 5 brothers and a sister out there. but i just count on the family i have now. i also understand the being so close to someone and then they're gone. my family moves alot so when iget used to the life and having very close friends we move and i get riped from them in a heart beat.
i know its not igsacly the same but it kinda is.
so im praying for the best to come to you. even a 13 yr old kid can understand how hard it is so id like to hope the best fro you and the guys!!!!
sincerly

AJ,
hey babe I'm so proud of you! You took the first huge step in getting yourself help. I just wanted to say that God is with you and he will always Love you if you allow him into your heart. Your grandmother obviously loved you, I mean who couldn't, I bet she is watching you now and is helping you through this hard ordeal. I hope you get better soon because I know the guys(bsb) and your loving fans want to see you back on stage. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know how depression can eat at a person. My sister(bestfriend) is depressed and it hurts me to see her the way she is, so I know since the guys see you as their brother that they will be praying for you. AJ, your fans love you a little more than I think you know. Good luck with everything and may God bless you and your loved ones as you go through these hard times.I love ya!To the other boys I want to pray for you too. I know it's hard to see a loved one fall but the fact that AJ has and is now recieving help is a glorious thing. You need to stay strong for him and keep him in your prayers.Love you guys!
One other thing, I have read most of these messages and I want to thank those of you who have hearts and that truly care. To those few who posted messages of negativity are not wanted here. Keep your cruel thoughts to yourself because these messages are supposed to only be of positivity and honestly if you have no support then we BSB fans don't want you on here!!!!
Good luck AJ! Your fans are here to support you and so are Brian,Nick,Kevin,and Howie! Love YA Forever!

A.J. is not my favorite Backstreet Boy, actually I find him quite abnoxious. But I have to say that he has gained my respect by willingly admitting that he has a problem and realizing that he needs help right now. It takes a lot for a person to do what he has done. It's even harder when you're in the public eye such as he is. My prayers are with you A.J. and may you have the strength to get through this and come out a stronger and better person.

AJ...I am so proud of you for realizing that you had a problem and I am proud of the rest of the guys for telling the fans the truth. I have been a fan for all of the 8 years that you guys have been together. I feel like I know you, so I know you can get through this. You have the strength to recover. All of your fans are praying for you. You are in my prayers every single day. When you recover, I think the bsb will be stronger than ever. We all love and admire you. I know what it's like to lose a grandparent that you were very close to. But I also know that you can get through this. I really hope that you see this letter, because I want you to know how important you are to me. I love you.
Love,
~*MIA*~ your number 1 fan forever
