RIP Robin Williams

Recommended Posts

I have never understood how people can put on two faces.  To the public eye, he was so funny, so charismatic and seemed to just embrace life.  And on the inside, he's in the darkest hole anyone can imagine.   I never can quite understand that.  When I'm sad, geez, I'm screaming it....I'M SAD !!!!  to everyone and anyone that will listen.  But I also do the same when I'm happy. 

 

My heart goes out to his family. His children, his wife.  She made the comment that she lost her best friend.  How powerless they must feel.  To finally realize the depth of his depression.  And knowing there is no way to fix it now. 

 

I wish mental illness was taken more seriously.  It truly is an illness.  Just like diabetes, HTN or any other physical disease process and really needs to be recognized as such.

 

He was a great man.  Made many people laugh.  Some until they cried.  It's very unfortunate he didn't quite grasp how dearly he was loved.  Even by those who never met him personally. 

 

May you forever rest in peace Robin.

He was such a funny guy.  My uncle is an actor and was in Patch Adams with him and said he was nice as could be too.  it is hard to believe such a wonderful person who brought joy to so many could be suffering so bad inside.

 

RIP Robin.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
