Oscar winner and comedian Robin Williams died this morning at 63. While his publicist wouldn’t confirm that it was a suicide, they did issue this statement. “Robin Williams passed away this morning. He has been battling severe depression of late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.”

Williams, who won an Oscar for his supporting role in Good Will Hunting, will reprise his role as Theodore Roosevelt in the third installment of Night at the Museum this December. He had recently signed on to reprise his beloved role as Mrs. Doubtfire in a sequel to be directed by Chris Columbus and was last seen opposite Annette Bening in the indie film The Face of Love.

Story developing…

RIP!! His movies made me laugh so many times over. His TV series "The Crazy Ones" was only watchable because off him. Prayers for his family.

It's both. Some of the most brilliant people are the most tormented. Van Gogh, Tesla, Mozart.... and in recent memory Cobain, Winehouse, Hoffman, and now Williams. We rarely get a glimpse of the interior of a person's life. If you know someone who's super creative, chances are they have a tough time in what we know as the "real world". Pay attention to them and check in on him or her regularly.

What I will miss most is his comedic randomness. Those interviews he did that would leave both Williams and whoever he was taking to in tears and on the studio floor laughing. His exchanges with his idol Jonathan Winters were gold.

So tragic and very sad. It's hard to believe someone who made us laugh so many times could be so depressed. He was one of my favourites and he will truly be missed. RIP Robin Williams.
I was thinking the same. Such horrible news.

He had a brilliant interview in Playboy about thirty years ago.

For all his celebrity he seemed very well grounded and had a good perspective of the world.

He was a real talent and will be missed!

The black dog can be so hard to shake....he tried but in the end he just couldn't. His mentor and idol Jonathan Winters suffered for years as well.

Peace

From Robin himself:

http://barenakedtalk.wordpress.com/tag/robin-williams/

I’m no scientist, so don’t bother being a big-dumby-left-brain by scrolling down and looking for statistics. You won’t find them. You will, however, find this lovely picture…


And that makes me happy. My right brain and my heart are in cahoots, so when I engage the right brain, I see the good in the world and I’m happy (and happiness is contagious).

But when I engage my left brain (without any help from the right brain), it’s dismal. See, I have these difficult days when my left brain kicks in and hunts down the “truth about the world” that I tell myself I deserve to know. And I go from one subject to another (and another) and within a few hours, I sink into a pit of hell as my left brain races off the track like a train out of control – I’m talking way past the usual things like financial pressure, lack of work, health issues of family members, world hunger, a skin tag growing in an uncomfortable place, biting mosquitos, rising gas prices and too much traffic.

No, no, no…it’s much worse. This train goes way off the track towards GMOs, Chemtrails, New World Order, Human Trafficking and a slew of other horrendous issues that pull my interests away from normal-everyday-annoying-bull-crap-type-stressors and into hours of concern which leads to hours of research, where I learn about even bigger and nastier atrocities that are supposedly hidden from us…which in turn leads to way more concern and ultimately, depression.

And that, my friends, renders me completely useless. My energy plummets. I can’t smile. I’m not fun to be around. I become paranoid. Possibly even snappy. I basically land up in HELL and stay there until I finally get a grip and make a conscious decision to “smell the roses” again and get back into my Right brain.

My left brain can be my biggest enemy when I let it loose. I take myself too seriously at times. I take the world too seriously. And the bottom line is, I land up perpetuating the problem. Of course I know some people will jump all over that – yes, I’ve heard it before. Like the time, I commented on a Facebook post, and some other commenter (a guy I don’t know) labeled me “sheeple” and “weak” and told me I was part of the problem and said “Do the world a favor and educate yourself before you comment on something you don’t understand!”

Oddly, he and I were in agreement about the horrendous issue (it was an upsetting quote by a certain Rockefeller), but when I mentioned (in my comment) the need for us to create more love in the world, he completely lost it and launched his attack on me.

My last comment to him was “Whoa dude! I am not the enemy!” That didn’t stop him – he continued ranting about “ignorant people” [like me] “who hide [their] head in the sand!” I let it go and he got the last word – why argue with an unreasonable person who makes claims about someone they don’t even know? But he helped me to realize how a “concerned citizen” can actually perpetuate the very problem that he/she hates so much! His negativity and hatred for the elite, for GMOs, for NWO, etc., only fuels that fire. It feeds their cause! Hatred and negativity only breeds more hatred and negativity!

While he may think he’s making a difference, I can only base my opinion on energy. If it feels good, my energy is pumped up and I’m contributing good vibes to myself and to the world (like I said, happiness is contagious) and people like to be near me. If it feels horrible, my energy plummets, I’m filled with fear and negativity – and not a lot of fun to be around! That’s not helping anyone! So judge me if you will, but that’s on you.

I will say this – In a world where we all play teacher and student, I did come to the conclusion that as much as I didn’t like to be judged by some stranger, maybe, just maybe, he taught me (in an odd sort of way), that I have no right to judge either. I had based my opinion on research, but who’s to say for sure? Only the supreme creator.

Regardless of the issue, my biggest lesson is this: My left brain can be beneficial if my right brain supervises (because my right brain is led by my heart). Right brain is light, happy, hopeful, fun, creative, open, carefree, and and even manifests MIRACLES (as I mentioned in a former post about a miraculous meeting with Wayne Dyer).

Left brain, on the other hand, is often serious, suspicious, paranoid, fearful, hopeless, withdrawn, or closed off to miracles. And when it’s off on it’s own, all HELL breaks loose and it isn’t pretty!

So repeat after me: Right Brain = Heaven. Left Brain = Hell.

Based on what I could find financial troubles, depression and addiction caused his suicide.

In September last year, Williams admitted he was forced to return to TV acting after three decades and sell his $35 million house because his two costly divorces left him on the verge of bankruptcy.

“The idea of having a steady job is appealing,” Williams told Parade magazine of his role in new TV show, The Crazy Ones.

“There are bills to pay. My life has downsized, in a good way. I’m selling the ranch up in Napa. I just can’t afford it anymore.

“Divorce is expensive. I used to joke they were going to call it ‘all the money’, but they changed it to ‘alimony’. It’s ripping your heart out through your wallet,” Williams said.

This is sadly a pretty common theme with comedic actors. I think that they use their humour and jokes to make people laugh and to fit in in a way. Meanwhile hiding a lot of the inner demons they have. Some of the most hilarious, joker, and non serious friends, have the toughest pasts. It's almost a way of distancing themselves and escaping. A form of compartmentalization. I know that I have used humour and feigned lightheartedness to hide my own pain at times. So that people would think everything was fine because I didn't want them to worry. Just look at the cast of SNL. Many lost to addictions and deep depression ending in suicide.

Just my own thoughts. It's really sad regardless. Robin Williams has made me laugh many many times. He was versatile and such a nice man. He used to eat at a sushi restaurant next to where I worked. I saw him nearly every day for a few weeks. He was always so friendly and kind. It just goes to show you that no matter how much money someone has, we all battle the same wars and suffer the same pains.
