A.J, I just want to say that we all know that you can get through this. You are a very beautiful and strong person on the inside.
I am very happy that you are getting the help you need and want. You have many people that love you and who support you. Your mother, the other BSB's,your fans, etc.
We love you, Alexander James McLean, not just A.J Backstreet.
You have my love and support always.
Keep the Backstreet Pride Alive!

Dear AJ,You don’t know me and I don’t know you. But I understand. You laugh. We’ve never met. In fact, we probably never will meet. How can I possibly understand what a total stranger feels? I admit I could have this totally wrong. I know there’s a chance, probably a big chance that I am wrong. But still I continue on… You are not a total stranger. Sure, we’ve never had a conversation. I’ve never seen you in person. Hell, for all I know, the person I see in pictures and on my TV screen could be a role you play. But in order to play a role so well, you must be drawing from some part of yourself, your ideas, and your feelings. So, no, you aren’t a *total* stranger. Anyways, I’m digressing. I do understand how you feel. I have lost someone close to me, someone I loved. I know how it feels to miss that person so terribly you don’t even notice the days going by. I have felt the pain, the physical pain, deep inside my body. I have cried my self to sleep. I have had no one to talk to. That’s how it all started, isn’t it? Way back in the beginning, when everything first started going downhill, it was because there was no one to talk to. You were trying to find yourself and a big part of that process is relating to others. There was no one. I know. I’ve been there. In fact, I might still be there. I don’t know who I am. I don’t know where I’m going. But I’m just an ordinary girl in her ordinary world. You, you live in the world of glitz and glamour, and therefore you have it ten times worse. But in the end, we all feel the same. We just react differently. I take it all in stride. Maybe I’m just not a people person. Maybe I’m destined to be alone, talking to my computer screen as I type, or my cat when I feel the need to vocalize. Maybe there is someone out there I have yet to meet. Maybe I will land the job I love no matter what, or maybe I’ll be stuck in retail for the rest of my life. Who knows? I have so much ahead of me. I can only guess at the future. I can sit and wait patiently for the answers. I don’t think you could. Maybe you got fed up with the glitz and the glamour. You couldn’t sit back and wait for the future. You couldn’t live with the present anymore. You wanted something different and you wanted it now. You wanted to know exactly whom you were and what was in store for you and you wanted to know now. Sorry, buddy, but sometimes you just can’t get what you want when you want it. Yes, this will be hard. Yes, it will probably dig out a lot of old wounds. Yes, you will probably not want to work at it some days. You will cry, you will get mad, but in the end, I hope you will finally be happy. I hope you will finally be content. I hope you will wait for the future, because I feel that the future for you will be something spectacular. All your dreaming, all your hard work, all your dedication, it will all pay off. You will be who you are meant to be, doing what you are meant to do. Take your thirty days. Use them. Take thirty more days. Take a hundred days. Take as long as you need. Sure, I’m a little disappointed. I wanted to see you in concert, but by the time you come back here, I’ll be in Virginia. But my disappointment is worth your victory of this battle. Because even if I won’t witness you triumphant return to the public world, I will be proud of you. You will win. Others have lost, but I know you will win. I have faith in you. Love, Steph

AJ we wish you all the best...You have so many fans pulling for you along with what sounds like a wonderful mother. With that and your extended family (the guys) We know you can do it!! I want to say thank you for being so honest and coming out about your problems. I have two daughters ages 8 and 5. They really look up to "Backstreet Boys", and my youngest one Brooke absolutely adores you. She is too young to completely understand, but she was so upset when she heard the news. I told her that you were sad and needed some rest so that is why you were in a hospital. She wanted to write to you so this was the best way I knew how. Our love and prayers are with you...Get well soon!!!Tracy, Brooke, and Meagan

Aj-
Like the hundreds (thousands ?) of other letters you're recieving lately, I just want to say congratulations for making such a hard and mature decision, good luck on recovery, and thank you. I need to thank you, because you, within the last year, have helped me in more ways than i can express. You said "Hi" to me, and waved at me in Seattle last February, which was perfect timing, because a week beforehand, my grandfather passed away, and few weeks later I found out that my parents are divorcing. My mom isn't dealing with this well, and has been drinking a lot lately. I wasn't really sure what to do about it, until I learned that you were dealing with the same thing. i want you to know, that since hearing about your strength to go through with rehabilitation, I have gone on a kind of huger-strike. not to an anorexic extent, but as long as you are giving up alcohol, i am eating only fruits and vegetables. hopefully by the end of all this, we'll both be healthier people! :o) you have so much love and support, not just from me, but from MILLIONS of other people, and every last one of us is praying for you, thinking about you, and missing you. So, until i see you in Seattle in August- be cool, be real, behave! :o)
