He'll be missed
L.F.D.
Heard about it ten minutes ago. Really, really tragic. The world may have lost a talented man, but his family's feeling the sorrow harder.
Depression sucks that hard. I hope he's in peace, but for now his family will be the ones who need the comfort.
I think Genie is my favorite role of his as well, but I've seen many more roles of him that I really can't decide which is my favorite. I don't think there was a single role of his I didn't like. Yeah, he had been in some bad movies, but he gave his best regardless.

I was really depressed in the beginning of 2013 when my parents split. It was easier to get through that (cheesy alert) because I started listening to some new bands that I really enjoyed which made me very happy. I wish Mr. Williams had found something like that to help him through a tough time instead of giving up (same goes for all people that become suicidal)

So much sadness...
Robin Williams, dead? I mean, he seemed like a happy guy...
And Absol Wings, being an older brother myself, I think just giving him some support from the get-go would go a long way.
My brothers, I never get any 'Thanks' or anything from them. It would make my entire day for them to do something like that.

I don't think we can really blame him, though. I doubt anyone outside of his closest family and friends knew of the struggles he had went through, nor for how long he had been miserable in private. Suicide is becoming more and more of a gray area that it's hard to know where to draw the line at, especially when mental illnesses such as depression are involved. There probably could've been an answer out there that would've given him the help he needed, if he hadn't tried everything, but it's possible it was just too much for him to handle. At this point, all we can do is mourn, give the family condolences, and then move on. Robin Williams left such a fantastic legacy that it's better to remember and rejoice in what he gave us instead of grieving over something that was beyond anyone's control.

Depression will do that, my mom suffered and did the same thing. Really hope the press leaves the Williams alone. He was awesome always loved when he appeared in Zelda commercials and the like.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll try doing that. "Life is too short to hold grudges" is my motto after all.
And.... holy Shinx, I'm literally just starting to make sense of what you guys are talking about. Robin Williams....dead? Wtf why, he was such a wonderful actor and person ;___;
I can't believe it. And SUICIDE? I had no idea he was suffering from depression.... Oooh gosh this is bad news. He's been such a cherished face ever since I was a kid..... man this feels lile the end of an era ._.

The thing is, depression is a really scary illness. If it's mild then you can do things on your own to help alleviate it. But if someone has a bad enough depression to become suicidal, they *NEED* professional help. Depression, the illness, is not just being really sad. It's like this chemical imbalance in your brain where everything is just terrible. When someone tries to or does commit suicide it's not because they "gave up", it's because they literally cannot see or even conceive that things are going to get better.

Wouldn't that be considered clinical depression?

Well, yes. That's the point I'm making. That suffering from depression the illness (Clinical Depression) is different than being depressed. When we're talking about someone who committed suicide because they've been struggling from depression, we're not talking about a person who is just depressed. We're talking about someone who was struggling with an illness.

Ah okay, got you. Yeah, everyone gets depressed every now and then. It really will only become a problem if your depression isn't going away and like you said, having thoughts of suicide.

That's a terrible joke. And no, not even close.
