    I knew he had problems but it also seemed like he had so much to live for. He also made all these feel good movies and family entertainment. I always thought he'd overcome this.

    Lots of other celebs are in and out of rehab but they're still here. Yes his career had been quiet lately but he'd had a good run in his prime. I assumed he could afford a good lifestyle.

    Still struggling to make sense of it. But you just never know sometimes. A friend of mine attempted suicide and I thought she was the least likely to try it. The ones who cover it best sometimes suffer the most.

    I'm surprised that it's a suicide. Had he been killed in a car crash or other accident, well anyone can die at any moment. That's why it's so important to be ready. For it is appointed that everyone will die once, then afterwards the judgment. - Hebrews 9:27

    But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

    Romans 10:8-10

    I would never have guessed that Robin Williams would die this way. I was expecting him to be around for a least a couple more decades.

    It was so out of the blue, like a lot of suicides. I knew he had relapsed somewhat recently but he'd also sought out help. This is beyond shocking. He was a true genius and an American icon.

    I wasn't at all, just goes to show that people who seem really happy are fighting their own battles. He will definitely be missed

    No I didn't. He career seems/seemed to be quiet lately.
