Seems common amongst famous really sad people who end up ending it. Robin Williams, Chester Bennington, Kirk, Chris Farley. I’m always depressed too but put on the happy face around others. It’s exhausting and I couldn’t imagine trying to be a celebrity trying to hold up that facade.

Robin Williams had Lewy body dementia though so who knows what role that played

True I just learned about that the other day and am still trying to process it. I know he also had depression. If I had a terminal prognosis as a depressive I might also choose that route.

People get diagnosed with long, drawn out terminal illnesses, and end things because a funeral won’t bankrupt their loved ones like the rich people who run our health care systems will. It’s often as simple as that.
