Appearing in Wednesday’s episode of Jada Pinkett Smith’s “Red Table Talk,” April Simpkins, 53, said Kryst sent her the message knowing she would be in an exercise class in order to prevent her from intervening. She only saw the text an hour after it was sent. (Read More Here).
“First, I’m sorry, by the time you get this, I won’t be alive anymore. And it makes me even more sad to write this because I know it will hurt you the most,” Kryst, 30, wrote to her mother.
“I love you mom, and you are my best friend, and the person I’ve lived for years. I wish I could stay with you, but I cannot bear the crushing weight of persistent sadness, hopelessness, and loneliness any longer,” the text continued. “I’ve never told you these feelings, because I never wanted you to worry, and because I hoped they would eventually change, but I know they never will. They follow me through every accomplishment, success, family gathering, friendly dinner.”
In her text, Kryst said she would cry “almost every day” and likened the feelings of sadness to grief and being in mourning.
“I wished for death for years. And I know you would want to know and want to help, but I haven’t wanted to share this weight with anyone,” she wrote. “Regardless of that, thank you sincerely for being there for me in some of my loneliness moments without me even telling you I needed you.”
Kryst thanked Simpkins for keeping her alive and ready to “face another day” by answering every phone call she made and being there for her “at the drop of a hat.”
“You listen to me and care when I tell you what goes on in my life and you’ve always made me feel like you loved me,” she added in the text. “I love you more than any person I’ve ever known. You’ve done nothing wrong, you’ve done everything right.
