      When we lived in Boise, Idaho a friend of mine was a police officer. I used to sometimes ride with him when he did his beat. I learned about accidental deaths due to strangulation while having sex or masturbating from him. Quite a few people die doing it I guess. He said the first death they had to go investigate when he was a rookie was a guy who accidently strangled himself while wanking. The experienced cops knew what it was. He couldn't figure out why the guy hung himself with no pants on.

          Actually, BB was based on a story that is nearly 100 years old. So, M&M stole it first.

          Loved JW on that show, though.

            "The flippant nonsense people are saying about him 'taking the easy way out' or being 'selfish' without knowing him or how he felt or what his experience of life shows more about their lack of imagination, empathy or ignorance of clinical depression than anything else.

            It's all too predictable but tiresome."


            I do not even try and fight the ignorance on Depression with these idiots Sesh. They think they know what happened....and they are all too happy to tell the rest of us how a clinical depression works...without a single close experience or the hard slog those that have lived with a depressed family member plays it out.

            They fucking know so much more than we do about it Sesh.

            My mother hung herself in my garage. Why do I even want to say it? It will make no difference in these peoples opinions or the ignorant shit they spout out of their superior pompous mouth about it. I know the kids know more about it...and will for the rest of their lifetime. Lost mine at 22.

            Depression has never touched them in any intimate way. Just let them spew their hatred....then they will just be quiet again while the rest of us deal with it. For them it means nothing but to tell us how their moral sanity is better than anything a depression family/individual ever had to deal with.

            They rock so much better than the rest of us. I am so glad they are sharing their wisdom on it. Will be glad when they forget about it again and go back to their prom fucking date lives. Back to the Khardasians fucks.

              I don't think the comments in here are about anyone being "all knowing" or "self righteous" in the field of depression. I'm sure there are varying degrees of experience with personal situations as well. In sorry to hear of yours, Sun.

                  I was cutting some zip ties with a knife and slipped and put the tip right into my wrist. Luckily I didn't hit an artery. I go to the emergency room to get it looked at and they thought I tried to commit suicide. I told them it was an accident. They didn't believe me. I got pissed and said if I was going to off myself I had plenty of better stuff to do it with than a stupid little knife. I got the impression they see cut wrists a lot.

                  Yup it's a pretty sad visual. He probably couldn't bring himself to cut his wrists deep enough so he went for the belt and just cinched it up tight and cut the blood flow to his brain. Not a pretty visual. Clearly whatever dark demons he was dealing with hit impulsively.

                    I didn't even know about this until you mentioned it. Funny shit!

                      Hey, here's a hint: go fuck yourself. I know more about depression and those suffering from severe mental illness who could not afford to receive any quality help. Williams had resources. Williams had family support. Williams went through rehab how many times..? He did take the easy way out! Bottom line.

                      If anyone remembers, you fucking asshole my own sister suffered from schizophrenia. Slowly, I watched a young, beautiful woman lose her looks and her mind. She took her life, too back in April 2010 not because she wanted to but because she did not have the adequate resources to cope; Williams did. So stop defending him. Williams chose to fuck up his life with cocaine and alcohol which only exacerbated his depression, my sister never came near that shit so what in the fuck do you know!?


                      Williams devastated his closet friends and family and, unlike my sister he had his facilitates about him - he made a coherent and conscientious choice to end his life. He knew he so fucking knew what that would do to those around him. So yeah, you whining chronic shit video youtube posting fuckwit, I do know how clinical depression works and how it robs so much from one's life. As for your mother, I'm sorry but get the fuck off your soapbox - you're not the only who has gone through the loss of another by suicide. So just shut the fuck up and go back to posting your crappy videos.

                        Obviously, you don't know as much as you think. For one thing, he was bi-polar.

                        I'm sure he did make a coherent and conscientious choice to end his life. I have no doubt that he wanted to end the burden for his family. More than likely, he believed his family, and the world, would be better off without him in it. He probably felt he was doing his family a favour...

                        How do I know this? Because I've fucking been there...

                            Yea not aimed at anyone here, but I think Sesh was talking more about Fox's Shepherd ect which I was as well. For 30 plus years always the same from those types. So yea, no one here, and should not have even posted as found it is just better to be silent about it....see the following.

                            As for K's self serving rant about shit she knows nothing about: "Williams devastated his closet friends and family and, unlike my sister he had his facilitates about him - he made a coherent and conscientious choice to end his life. He knew he so fucking knew what that would do to those around him. " Coherent and "conscientious" Wow. As in Princess Bride "I don't think you know what the word means." And closet friends? Was he gay? In any case, your true colors are your own Kristy you shine clearly now. For many many sufferers of Acute Depression, even with the best care there is, they lose the battle. But as you said, you know more about it than the rest of us and we are just people you need to insult.

                            For everyone who has dealt with suicide and depression in those around them...those comments above kinda sums up what Sesh was referencing. Kristy should see in her own post, but there is no logic. Depressed people and Schizophrenics Don't Know what they are doing. The are frequently very far removed from Reality. That is why they commit suicide. If they were fully aware they would not. We are not talking about Hitler or Goering here where sick but fully aware criminals commit suicide. I can see the "Coward's Way" about them, but from all accounts Robin was a good guy. He did not do it on purpose, it just appears to us as hopefully more emotionally and mentally well people as a terrible mistake.

                            You can't have it both ways Kristy. Either Robin was a terrible man who did this just for fun to torture his family because of an affair or bankruptcy or crime, or he was terribly sick and saw no solution to the absolute day after day mental torture until he lost it. Which was it?

                            Kristy. Goodbye. I feel sorry for you. You took a post that had nothing to do with you and made yourself center stage for some unfulfilled need you have. So sorry you lost your sister and I am sure you are posting from pain. The lack of taste and class in evidence though you own yourself. See you after you actually have a degree and something to say. If you were a male I am sure you would have plenty of dental work done by now as your kind of misery tends to find it's own reward. You keep posting your super great video's of your own! Out.

                              My first thought upon hearing that was "cutting". Quite common for numerous disorders. Cutting is often an attempt to provided a sense of release from the pain, or a manifestation of self-loathing.

                              I have lost loved ones through suicide, and it IS horrid, so much worse than a "normal" death. If we de-stigmatize mental illness, it will also help those left behind. I had one brother who died of suicide, and, as many of you know, another from brain cancer. Both were taken by horrible, monstrous illness.
