News of Robin Williams’ death made my heart plummet and my eyes well up with tears. Learning he may have committed suicide brought thoughts of hopelessness to my already raging depression.
I remember once discovering that Robin Williams may have had bipolar disorder and not just depression, but now I can’t find any proof of that. He never openly admitted to having bipolar disorder. Bipolar or not, it shouldn’t matter. He was an exceptional man. Unfortunately, his inner turmoil overwhelmed him for whatever reason.
Williams’ death will hopefully help others realize that they should get help for their depression, instead of trying to deal with it on their own.
Deepest Sympathy to Robin Williams’ family and his friends. The legend will be missed.
