That's what people have been saying.
I am a HUGE fan of Classic Hollywood - Lauren death saddens me! I heard she died of a stroke. |

I didn't read any details just that she had passed. She had an amazing career!

She did. 89 years is a long time, but it's still sad. Anyone who dies is just sad. It looks like she was about a month short of her 90th birthday.

I also like Jim Carey, but Robin was by far the best. If Robin was in a film l would watch it. It is such a pity he didn't get to star in more films. __________________

Hopefully some good will come of Robin Williams death. There are certainly problems getting metal health treatment and a stigma in the USA. |

^ Thank you very much for sharing.
I so hope it will encourage people who are battling with depression to speak openly. People who have depression aren't failures. It's been neglected for way too long and I hope the issue can improve in some way. It really is heartbreaking. I adore this thread so that we can all come together. __________________

^ Well said
People don't treat depression with the urgency and seriousness that it needs. I ask myself why, every single day People who suffer with it need to open up to whatever is happening inside their mind. It's the only way that took me on my road to recovery. By speaking openly, but admittedly it took guts. It took nerves of steel for me. We need to listen to those that need to reach out, but they can't. Depression is not a throwaway comment, it needs to be taken seriously. It's a condition, not an expression. __________________

And the other thing this brings up is that depression also doesn't just go away.
If anyone thought Robin Williams was "better" because his profession was to make people laugh, I hope they now understand that depression is a completely different animal. People do get better. But smiling and making people laugh has nothing to do with it. And sometimes they get better for a little while, and then you're back to square one again. And there's no shame in that either. I don't think anything can make this anything short of a tragedy, especially for his loved ones, but indeed, if it means we're all moving towards greater understanding and compassion for people who live with this terrible disease, then something positive will have come out of this horrible event. __________________

^ It's nothing but a tragedy. I quite agree. I just hope something good is able to come out of this meaning that I hope people will take depression as a serious illness now. I can't stress it enough.
There's no shame in it at all, no shame and nobody that suffers it is a failure. Anyway, I still can't get over the shock of him passing. What a remarkable man. __________________
