If all the people were to write about how the show House M.D changed their life it would honestly take YEARS to read, it gives inspiration, knowledge; no-matter what house say’s ‘hope’ (no it’s not for sissies although I get where he comes from) and its realistic. Don’t hate me but when I started watching house, from the very first episode I didn’t really like it- (meh ok, nothing else on), so grudgingly I watched the next episode, next episode, next episode and the next, soon I realized I was liking it, I was hooked (line and sinker) around season 3 and I made everybody around me aware of that. It was in my top favorite shows.

I’ve always had people come into my life and slowly leave, I’ve never stayed in one place to long. It hurt but I got through it.
In year 7 and year 8 I was happy I had everything ahead of me, great at school, fine with my family, new pets and best of all my own group of friends. I looked forward to everyday

They left; my best friends left withought an explanation, my best friends who I would do everything they asked, risk my life for, who made me feel like I was something important. People who used to make me smile so much it hurt and now the closest thing I have now is a smirk. Did I do something wrong, something I said? Every morning to have them say they loved me (both boys and girls) did they mean it? No they were bored of me. That was what was going through my head. I went into severe depression with no help, insomnia was a ritual with me crying to sleep, my grades were hopeless they were thinking of making me repeat the same year level, I pushed my only remaining best friend away because I was paranoid that they were going to leave me to, and my family was not happy with my behavior. They didn’t realize what I was going through, why talk about it if it not going to change what happened. I’ll talk if something is going to change.

This is where I thrust myself into house getting all the seasons and never missing an episode, it helped a lot, this character I realized was a lot like me, I started to understand him better and realize why he did the things he did, I’m not like before, not naïve and not so easy to let people in, I protect myself. Now my favorite show I set up a house wall (or shrine as my parents teased) full with seasons on display, calendar, the clock I made in school, hundreds of quotes, pictures/magazine clippings and print outs all about house, I could safely say I knew everything about the popular TV show soon lulling my nighttime crying by reading fanfiction until I fall asleep, it helped a lot.

I went through house detox a while later, scared I pulled everything down, my cousins one day came over and decided it would be fun to take my DVD’s and hide it breaking it in the process, and in turn leaving me heartbroken. I spent the whole night balling my eyes outside, it was freezing cold outside and I was sweating and for the first time in my life I had an anxiety attack. If this is how I feel about a broken DVD how am I going to react to the end of my beloved show? Suicide- my life was useless, the most important thing to me was a TV show, I hated my family, my three friends at the most would get over me and my pets had died just few days after this happened- finalizing it all I sat down to watch my so be it last marathon episodes of house when I came across a quote house said “living in misery sucks marginally less than dying in it.”- MY GOD house just saved my live because he is always right. i dont want my last thought and life so far to be a miserable one

I have just recently realized I have an attachment disorder, I still suffer from depression and insomnia, socially isloated and just a pinch of crazy but I’m Leave the past behind and I’m moving forward (MY GOD I sound so cliché) but I have learned from my mistakes, thanks to House MD and what time I spend watching it makes my day brighter because I hate sitting in front of the TV and watching characters always having a fairytale ending because it is usually not true and it makes us feel small and unimportant and what happiness he has gives me hope (although i would like him to have a happy ending). My grades have improved I’m topping my class in English and Science (I got the teacher to watch about 5 episodes house in that class). I have chosen my vocation Veterinarian but guess what, everybody reckons I should be a doctor! (I don’t blame them they usually come and ask me for a consult. LOL.) So I just might apply to that. My past was shitty but I guess I don’t have to expect my future to be. i've only got HOUSE M.D and the brilliant writers, producers and actors (Hugh Laurie- What a genuinely top class guy) to thank
so THANK YOU!
