I believe he was dealing with severe depression to the point of anxiety attacks, panic attacks, and at times depression so deep that he had trouble keeping going.

I know how depression is and what it does to a person. He may have not intentionally killed himself. He just didn't know what amount of meds were safe for him to take to get to where he wanted to be.

They say his life was rough. His Mom and Dad got a divorce when he was 10 and he got really shy and retreated into himself. I'm wondering if the split from Michelle Williams didn't maybe bring back those memories along with this movie bringing on the feelings he had about it. I saw pictures of him on the movie and what I saw scared me just to see it.

This brings back my thought though that these stars are not getting the help they need. They are looked at as strong people who are not afraid of anything or they wouldn't be in the limelight. They are looked at as people who don't mind being in crowds. They are expected to work long hours to make a show or a movie and they for some reason think they can do it. They don't know their limits and Hollywood doesn't care if they have a limit.

They were saying today on the View that their needed to be something out there such as the sports world has for drugs and health. I believe they should too, such as required physicals before making a movie and drug testing.

I didn't mean to make it sound like he did it on purpose. It's another case though where drugs were involved and no one was there for him. I think the reason I see this and feel this way is because I do deal with major depression and someone was there for me.

I thought he was one of the cutest stars today and one of the best actors. I think that's why it hit me so like it did and he had so much potential.

I wish they would quit with all the drug talk.

But as far as the stars having problems and not being happy, you have to think, they spend most of their time pretending to be someone else. You have to wonder if they weren't happy with themselves before they became actors or if the lines between the character and them get blurred.

I think it is just tragic how his family heard the news. I know by being actors they live a public life but the news show's should be more sympothetic to their friends and families. Now they are also linking him to Lindsay Lohan. That girl can barely breathe with out it being on youtube or on the news so why haven't we heard that before his death?

My heart goes out to his family, Michelle and his daughter, it's bad enough that he died but now they have to deal with all the trash talk and gossip.
