Robin Williams Commits Suicide

[Rick]

Depression for some people is a life long Permanant Problem. 10% of sufferers do not respond to any currently available treatments.

Sometimes I wonder if some of those suffers are afraid of the side effects of depression drugs and don't seek treatment.

Could very well be. I won't take medication until I absolutely have to.

Its 10% of patients, meaning those that have sought help and received all of the currently available treatment options.

I believe its more ....and the psychiatric field is far from an exact science.....just getting diagnosed properly is a miracle. Antidepressants, don't work like Tylenol on a Headache, it could take 3-4 weeks to build up a therapeutic level in your system....if they ever work at all. ECT is pretty much the last resort when all other treatment modalities have not produced the desired effect. ECT is hit or miss at best.Depressed kids are growing in epidemic proportions ...and depressed kids become depressed adults. The amount of teenage girls cutting themselves on a routine basis is staggering.

Many, won't and don't

Robin Williams was my all time favorite comedian and actor. His dramatic performance was just as great and his comedic performances. He was a genius and those shoes will always remain empty because NO ONE can ever fill those shoes. He could in one breath make you laugh till you cried and in that same breath could deliver a dramatic performance that would leave you speechless and crying. He truly had a special talent and gift and he shared it with the world. I was so sadden when I heard that Robin passed away. It was like a huge part of my childhood and life had been taken. I could always count on Robin to make me laugh when I needed it the most. Depression is a monster destroying lives. I just pray that where ever Robin is that he is at peace and helping God deliver the worlds funniest punchline. I can see it now Robin walks through the gates of heaven as God says "Two Jews walk into a bar...." God Bless you Robin.
