My best friend and I started a commercial heating and AC repair business.
- During the first year of business, I was with my girlfriend of five years.
The two of us were very happy until one day when she told me that it was over. I was so depressed that I couldn’t get out of bed. I couldn’t eat or sleep and I was depressed and suicidal. I felt like nothing in my life had meaning or purpose. My best friend Jack came over to talk to me. We work in the commercial heating and air conditioning repair business together. I was supposed to go to a commercial AC repair and I just slept instead. I was losing everything and Jack didn’t want to watch it happen. He got me out of bed and into the shower. After that, we went to an AA meeting and I scheduled a therapy session with the doctor. I didn’t realize how much of my emotional well-being was tied up in my girlfriend. When she left, I absolutely went crazy and didn’t think I would be able to go on. After 3 months of therapy, I’m feeling much better and the business is thriving. I’m very thankful that Jack didn’t give up on me or our friendship. He could have dissolved our partnership and asked for control of the business. Instead, he helped me get through one of the toughest times of my life. That guy is a really great friend and a good dude to have behind my back and in my corner.
