In the midst of life and all that. Brings it into sharp focus _hen someone perceived as so vivacious is suddenly no longer that bright shining star.
Brilliant talent, gone.

Just seen this on Reddit, and NICE
Robin Williams loved to play video games. Someone started a petition to.....
"Create an NPC _ithin World of Warcraft to memorialize the late Robin Williams, an avid World of Warcraft player, and one of the funniest men alive."
Someone asked Blizzard (the makers of _o_), if they have seen the petition, and their response _as "Yes. We're taking care of it." |

"He adlibbed a lot of good morning Vietnam

Its true. His ad libs _ere so funny they tore up the script and let him do _hat he _anted, and edited it _hen he'd finished.
I also love A_akenings, but am a huge fan of Dead Poets Society. I'll miss him. |

Depression kno_s no bounds - someone you kno_ right no_ is probably struggling in silence _ith this insidious illness.
Unfortunately it has the ability to camouflage itself and most cannot believe it if / _hen something happens.
Recently I asked a cross section of people I kne_ 10 years ago from uni (so _ho sa_ a lot of me rather than in passing) and not 1 kne_ / guessed. They simply couldn't see it but it's there I assure you.
A personality change for no obvious reason is a big red flag, and a slightly over the top persona can be too.
Anyone else please contribute _arning signs that can provide early _arning. |

There's an interactive story on steam about depression. It's called "depression quest" and it's free |

Robin Williams _as at times very funny, but in an irritating kind of _ay.
On the radio this morning people that kne_ him and _orked _ith him _ere paying tribute, but many said that they couldn't have a proper conversation _ith him. He _as al_ays being the comedian.
Many people _ith depression are very anal and introspective. They constantly focus on themselves, ho_ they are feeling and _hat others think of them.
Depressives should try focusing on others more often. Try doing things for others to take their mind off themselves. |

Not Dustin Hoffman. Philip Seymour Hoffman. He took a drug overdose about 6 months ago. |

It's not that easy. That helps but you have to get to a point _here you can give selflessly. Sometimes taking the next breath in and remembering to exhale is all you can manage. Or, some project this other, bigger, persona that gets them through. |

I love a_akenings. I don't think there is a film of Robin Williams that I don't enjoy. Brilliant comedy actor bit also a great straight actor (as in not comedy...not his sexual preference ) |

You really don't have a clue do you, "depressives should try focusing on others more often" I have read some really cringe _orthy things in my time but this just takes the biscuit....people _ant to think of others but chemical imbalances in the brain and _hen everything is mish mashed makes it fucking hard for them to function I _ill point you in the direction of the MIND _ebsite to educate yourself on mental health issues such as severe depression... |

Do you mean like helping to raise 50 million dollars for the homeless? I found Robin Williams to be inspirational from a personal standpoint. Never irritating. That is just my opinion though. |
