As a mental health therapist I work with people who think that ending their life is a good option to escape the anguish they face every moment of every day. We will never understand the torment that defined Robin Williams’ world. We don’t know his true life journey. We just see the route he chose, probably in a very vulnerable moment. To all, depression and other mental illnesses do not have to have this result. Seek assistance; do you take your car in for oil changes, do you have your taxes done by a professional, do you go to an MD when your arm is broken? Yes, most of us get help from people who are trained to do the tasks we require. Seek out the help of a mental health therapist when you have intrusive thoughts. Bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other similar disorders can cause suicide if untreated or not effectively treated. But the number one cause for suicide is untreated depression -- and depression is highly treatable. So please act immediately if you or someone you know may have depression. I offer unconditional love to any of you who are survivors of a suicide attempt.
