So damned sad.. http://www.tmz.com/2014/08/12/robin-williams-suicide-by-hanging-note-dead/ One of my favorite segments. The guy was so quick and so sharp that he even left Carson in the dust (laughing uncontrollably). [video=youtube;Qr1DSLoHni0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qr1DSLoHni0[/video]
Yup, sad to see him go. I thank him for all the years of entertainment he gave me. RIP Robin Williams, you'll be missed.
not really suprising considering most of his pulic appearances he was in a manic state. High highs on camera are going to lead to low lows when out of the public eye. still, kind of bumbed to see him go. it will be hard to watch a film of his and laugh knowing that the guy offed himself. i am not sure I will be able to block it out. i was just going to order mork and Mindy for my kids but thats not going to happen now. I was bumbed out when Paul walker died but i can still watch him. Paul didnt commit suicide though.
my family lost someone to suicide by hanging. No matter how much time passes, you always have doubt about why you did not see it coming.
I think due to his past alcohol and drug abuse and manic depressive / bipolar disorder / self harmer because he was cutting his wrists that he was suffering too deeply inside to continue living. He put up a great fight though. I'm glad he's not in pain anymore. I'm not pro suicide but it's a common part of life and nobody is exempt from killing themselves. I've already chosen it as my way of death. Of course it won't be until I'm older and closer to the dying age but I will choose my own fate, not have it chosen for me.
I just tossed Goodwill Hunting and Dead Poets Society to my Netflix queue. Missed them both and admire the fact that the guy was considered a serious actor as well as a comic.
Ah dude, i'm SO sorry for your loss. That's horrid. Robin apparently had lifelong depression and dependency issues. Was that the case with yours?
Then you support Oregon's "Death with Dignity" law? I certainly do, the opposition suggested that it would bring on THOUSANDS of suicides. They were wrong. Those pills seem to be working a helluva lot better than the BS new lethal injection drugs.
Add Hook and Jumanji. One of my favorites is Jack. Hes genius in that movie. However, my biggest favorites is Patch Adams. He portrayed the real one perfectly.
Ob lord. Dont get them started. - - - Updated - - - Thats ok. I lost it when my kid he lost his happy thoughts.
I support it and its only a matter of time before we have laws in Canada. Quebec is the first. Ontario or BC will be next. - - - Updated - - - Sure. You're damn right. I already know how. Pills and alcohol so I die in my sleep. No physical suffering.
Yeah, great message for those contemplating suicide......kill yourself and be free! what the hell is wrong with you people? Jim Jones Much? life is not something you just throw away because its too hard. Its a constant struggle mentally and physically.
Life is not precious. It's an option. We have options. People die everyday. There really is nothin special to life. Sadly I hate to admit his but Robin Williams dying will not affect this world. People will be sad & grieve. And then we'll move on. Some will remember him. People he was closest too. But he will be a footnote and most of us will remember him only when we watch his movies. His death while incredibly sad doesn't change a thing and that's life.
I have already thought of moving to Oregon when I retire because of their "Death with Dignity" laws as I want that option avail if I come to need it
Actually, any suicide is just as tragic as the next. To me it makes no difference if it was a celebrity, or the average Joe who lived across the street.
What ever trips your trolley. I don't see anything wrong with it if you are going to die a prolonged painful death otherwise, and it is your choice not to suffer ((*)(*)(*)(*) anybody who wished that on anybody and that is what you are doing if you keep them from doing what they believe is best) but just offing yourself because it seems like an easy way out. The sad part is depression is much more powerful than reasonable thinking. Some can be helped other not so much. We had a lady here who was suicidal, giddy, sad, happy, and found out in the middle of the night chasing snakes of all things, all because they kept giving her the wrong medications. Her daughter finally brought her to someone else and within a week she was eating, cleaning herself (many people who are ill depressed don't take care of themselves at all), going shopping, visiting friends, and back to work. It was like somebody just turned on a switch. She was one of the lucky ones, for sure.
Hopefully you go in your sleep with no pain so you don't have to make that 'choice'. Hope I never have to think about it. Most people said I would never see 45 but I beat that by a decade already.
