Fuck...that's making me tear up.
 
Thats the thing though, his didn't seem like a facade. And I rarely believe that about anyone. So now I feel like if even he was faking it, were all fucked.

Well, don't get yourself down thinking he was miserable every day of his life. If he had been fighting it his whole life I'm sure he got help for it and had long lengths of time where he was great and happy. And then, sadly, there would be long lengths of time where he wasn't. That's kind of how it goes.

Depression sucks. It's as real as a broken arm, but it can't be seen so you can hide it or even not realize it yourself. Throw on top of that a huge chunk of the population doesn't get the difference between depression and just feeling down and will say things like "well, you've got all that money, what do you have to be depressed about?" And there's probably a part of you that believes that too. Like all that money would stop your arm from being broken...
 
He just was one of those people who always came across as just simply a nice person.

Such a sad loss.
Yeah, it's so rare for me to see a famous person that you just KNOW is that nice. That's why his acting performances were always so infectious. You could just tell it was coming from a place of such genuine warmth and goodness.
 
My condolences to his friends and family. And Rest In Peace to one of the greatest actors and comedians of our time, I loved him. Robin Williams will be missed.
 
I decided read some of the comments on the CNN article. Big mistake. A whole bunch of shit about how he was possessed by demons. Seems all the nut-jobs are coming out of the woodwork.
 
I still can't believe it. I don't know what he was going through to think that suicide was the only option left; I just hope he knew how much he was loved, appreciated, and respected.

To me, he'll never be gone. His movies (and all the other stuff he's done) will always be there for me to enjoy.

I just wish he could've done more...
 
I'm a standup comedian, and i was just at a show. A few of the veteran comics had worked with Robin before, and they all had the nicest things to say about him. Supposedly the nicest guy ever.

Local news crew showed up at the show to interview some of the comics who knew Robin, it was heartbreaking and very sweet.
 
I can't wrap my head around the news. My thoughts are, of course, with Zelda and the rest of the Williams family. RIP to a wonderful man.
 
I cant even imagine how alone he must have felt especially leading up to the moments of his death, he must have been just in a dark place and incredibly hollow and alone. I wish someone was there to lend him a helping hand and telling him they love him and everything will be ok :(
 
Yup this one really hurts. Hook was essential viewing every christmas when i was younger. Loved the shit out of the Crazy Ones as well. I was on a flight to Hong Kong and Singapore Airlines had a ep on inflight- the one which guest starred Josh Groban and involved the agency writing a jingle for Australian Tourism. Loved it so much i watched it twice.
 
I was reading through his AMA from a few months ago and came across this bit:

Good god, I don't why, this just makes me so much more fucking depressed inside. I wish he was still alive.

Rest in peace, you legend.

My birthday is the death day of Robin Williams. :( I can't believe he's gone. I always just kinda thought he'd somehow live forever. People should really watch Good Will Hunting and Insomnia if you want to see some of his great dramatic roles. One of the most versatile and genuinely hilarious guys in the business. This is a goddamn tragedy. RIP Robin Williams, you will be missed.
 
I am so freaking gutted by this news. I loved his movies. He was a huge part of my childhood even until now. I'm really mourning this loss. RIP Robin :*(
 
I stood on my desk today.

If there is a God, may he/she bless his hairy ass.

Gonna watch Dead Poet's this weekend, at least
 
Zelda, if you're out there, you are an incredible young woman, and your father would be very proud of you. Stay strong. The entire world is with you.
