This part is a bit weird but it's not enough on its own. For all we know he was clean.
His struggle with depression was no secret.
And depression doesnt need a reason for suicide. It is a tortured life. I have felt depression through my wife and her cancer and I came out the other side but it left me with a better appreciation for the people that feel like that every single day of their lives. With no reason except that feeling is there lingering every day.
And the meds suck. I was on one for a while to 'help me cope' with the situation. May cause suicidal thoughts is the wrong label....will cause suicidal thoughts should be on the label. I was strong enough to say wait a minute there is something not right. Maybe its the meds and googled it. And it was. And my life became immeasurably better when i stopped taking the pill and started taking cannabis more frequently..
But in a way i was blessed that my depression was circumstantial.
Many of the most creative people (artists, comedians, actors etc.) suffer from depression and their outlet is fame. The end result is often suicide. Brutal but true.
Too bad there wasn't a pill that fixed it and didn't make you a different kind of crazy.
