If Robin offed himself then I can't really give him a whole lot of sympathy unless he was dying from a terminal disease. I never could understand how a person who has practically everything in life could just decide to check out one day because life is just so depressing. I guess the rest of us who live in the real world are just too busy trying to make ends meet while our government picks our pockets and lies to us to become drug addicted and depressed.
However this seems to happen all the time among the Hollywood elites, musicians, and other famous people who kill themselves with drugs and alcohol. Could it be their guilt of becoming rich and receiving accolades, adulation, awards, and trophies for doing nothing more than entertaining us? Maybe Robin just came to the realization that even Honey Booboo and Si Robinson are capable of entertaining the ignorant masses. I will leave the celebrity worship to the rest of you because I look up to a different caliber of individual.

btw, now that i think of it, he was on like his third marriage? and milked dry by the previous 2, maybe he was just broke and getting to old to work like a dog .
I never could understand the psychology of celebrity worship. I have far more sympathy for those who actually sacrificed something for us all like our military veterans. You know, the ones who we put on medical waiting lists while they die. I mean, who here wouldn't trade places with Robin relative to them who sacrificed so much. I just heard Larry King on Fox say Robin gave us a gift we could never repay and I wanted to gag.
My brother just informed me about all the charity work Robin provided for the military. He said that Robin once visited his battalion in Bagram, Afghanistan...and how he spent so much of his time one on one with many of the troops...pictures and stories and well wishes. Wow...quite a guy.
So sorry to hear this, he has brought so many fond memories. I cannot accept he committed suicide, it could be drug overdose but I doubt he would ever give up even in this life. Hard to say what my favorite Robin Williams role was. Probably Mrs. Doubtfire. What a huge loss.....
I'd say those early days of Mork and Mindy. But that was a good movie. Patch Adams was good too.My favorite bit by Robin is when he explains how the game of Golf was conceived/developed. It's absolutely "wet your pants funny."So sorry to hear this, he has brought so many fond memories.

Sadly it is often the funniest people who are secretly suffering the most and take their lives like this or in similar fashion. If you look at the comedy world there is a very big history of suicides, drug overdoses and other preventable deaths like Chris Farley, Greg Giraldo, Robin Williams to name a just a few of the many on the list. RIP Robin and sympathies to your family. Its sad more people can't see the pain and depression hiding behind people's comedy facades.

When I heard about it I instantly imagined him in the scenery of one of his movies where he was searching for his dead wife in heaven... So beautiful scenery. I hope he is there right now. RIP
Of which was similar to...
...and is Art Bell's (Coast to Coast) favorite movie of all time (no pun...).

Such great actors don't last, what a great loss.
It's a tragedy. So sad, because a great talent has left this planet way too early.
Depression is a mental condition unfortunately not a lot of people understand the proper way. Maybe his death should be the wake-up call for many.

Depression is real. Bad enough this is what happens.
I been pondering on if he had smoked a cannabis, this would have never happened.

Didn't even realize he was struggling with depression. Very sad news...suicide at 63...what a sad situation.I guess we should concentrate on all the brilliant roles he played and all the laughs he provided. I been pondering on if he had smoked a cannabis, this would have never happened.

Robin Williams, RIP. There are few things in life more important than a good laugh every once and a while and Williams provided many.
RIP Rob! Might have to dig out my Jumanji dvd
