Personal feelings about Robin Williams

[jirel]

There is just one thing I wish everyone could take from the death of Robin Williams. Depression is a disease that kills. And if someone you know dies of depression, it is the fault of the disease. Not of the person who died and not the fault of anyone that knew them. Family and friends should never wonder what they could have done different.

We lost my brother to suicide (from depression) after he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. He'd had Hodgkins in his 30's and lived in fear of it re-occurring. None of us could hate him for his decision. Like Robin Williams, he'd been so brave for so long, that it was time for him to rest.
