It's been a long while since losing someone I've never met actually hurt. This definitely does.

This is horrible. I was a huge fan growing up. Used to watch Ms Doubtfire, Hook, & Jumanji all the time when I was little. So Sad. He was an amazingly gifted comedian. RIP.

It's hard enough to hear about natural death, but this, and to one of the greatest comedic talents for the last several decades, and not just comedy, Robin was great with drama and other genres too, whatever troubles he was going through, at least they're over now, RIP Robin Williams.

I was just thinking of a good actor he was yesterday...

Like when I found out today I didn't really want to believe it. Is it bad I started crying? I didn't know how much of a role he played in my childhood 'til now.

Whenever a celebrity commits suicide, it just proves that being rich and famous doesn't automatically mean happiness.

Quite shocking to see him go, wasn't he just on a new show with Sarah Michelle Gellar recently?

I hope that for as much pain he must have been in.......that he feels ten times the love and peace in the afterlife.

Heaven has a funny new angel in place.

Yuuno, it's not just knowing that he's now dead that hurts, but the way he went is what really makes it sadder. Guess it just goes to show that while it may be easy to make people smile or laugh, it's harder to do the same for yourself sometimes.

My condolences to his family and friends, and especially to his daughter Zelda.

May you RIP.

I just saw this here and was shocked. I literally gasped out loud. I don't think I've ever been so surprised by the death of a celebrity except Michael Jackson.

He was still young and fine. Had no idea he was battling depression.

There was recently news of a Mrs. Doubtfire 2. I was really looking forward to that.

This is another example why people should never scoff over depression like it's no big deal.

Depression is a very terrible and horrifying thing.

Shocking news. I can't believe someone like Robin Williams had severe depression. Rest in peace Robin Williams. I wish his family and friends strength to endure this heartbreak.

You're right on the money there, JTH. There is no right or wrong way to act when you have depression, and this is why it's important to be supportive of mental health issues.

Also damnit Net, that Tumblr post got me all choked up!

Robin Williams touched a lot of people through his life - I doubt there's a person on these boards who doesn't have fond memories of many of his movies. This is a sad, tragic ending for a talented man, and he will be missed.
