Title: Suicides of Wealthy People like Anthony Bourdain, Kate Space and Robyn Williams
Post by: braggin on October 13, 2018, 04:39:57 am
Why do you suppose it is that wealthy people with psychological disorders sometimes end up killing themselves? They
clearly have enough money to try all available psychological and psychiatric option available to help themselves. It is my opinion that they reach a point where their psyc problems have not been resolved, they can't think of any more options to resolve them, so find suicide a rational choice. I also think that all of them did, in reality, have even more options but they were not able to figure out what they would be.

Didn't know that Anthony did that, but you're right, they can get the help they need, there are people out there that can help with depression.

Well it is clear that apparently money doesn't necessarily equate to happiness.  But most of these people have money, spouses, kids whatever -  I don't get it but I feel for their friends fans and family.

That is why they should have asked other people if there were any more options they could think of.

Mental illness affects everyone across all incomes; many times family many times family and friends may be aware but trying to get the individual to treatment can be a challenge if they do not think they need it; other times those around the person  may be  in denial so it is just a sad situation at times. I am  glad that more awareness and education is beginning to be focus on resources.

The same reasons anybody else kills themselves. TALKING to a phyc doctor does not fix your problems. This world is a tough place and people are dealing with a lot. Some deal with it better than others.

Just because somebody kills themselves doesn't mean they have "mental illness".

Mental illness can affect anyone no matter how much money they have or how famous they are.  It is a silent disease that can make people do things they would not usually do.

I don't believe that Anthony Bourdain killed himself, nor Robin Williams. Maybe I'm wrong. When you take your own life the connection is mental illness. It's not normal to take your own life.

I guess they get tired of living on stage whether they are on the stage or not. It  is a lot of pressure to try to stay on top and please everyone under the sun. Plus people are always wanting something from you just because of who you are.

We can all think we might know the reason or reasons why someone may kill themselves.And maybe lots of times we may be right.But we also might be wrong too.

Only God sees the heart condition of us and only he knows the real reason to judge why that person did it.God commands us NOT to kill and suicide is just that.But maybe a physical or mental reason caused it where God can forgive the person for it and give them reason for the truth and living again.

So not to be difficult here, but what do you believe happened to Anthony Bourdain and Robin Williams?  Do you think they were murdered, or do you think that they are still alive and in hiding?  Or are you maybe saying that you believe their deaths were merely accidental and not intentional?

Suicide affects everyone regardless of their income.  I have no idea why those 3 killed themselves.  Their family and friends might have an idea as they knew them and probably saw changes happening to them.  Some people kill themselves for financial reasons, lost love, major health problems, family situations, who really knows.  It's just sad for the family.

Fame and fortune doesn't buy happiness. I bet if we looked at the numbers, we'd find suicides of wealthy people to be at about the same rates as suicides of your average Joe. I have anxiety and depression myself but have never been suicidal. Suicide is a permanent end to a temporary problem. There are lots of solutions to psychological issues -- the most effective I have found is medication, but everyone's different so just because something works for me doesn't mean it will work for other people. What is important is to never give up hope.

Robin Williams hung himself. I do not know who the other person is.

Maybe it isn't for us to understand what happened or why. Mental Illness is horrible, I have depression, severe anxiety and panic disorder. Hopefully one day we can be free from mental illness.

Hello! :D :)

It doesn't matter how much money you have what matters is how strong your mind is. Money doesn't help you escape your problems sometimes it creates problems. Money can't buy happiness and a peace of mind though some have tried. May we all find peace at some point in our life. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

Why do non wealthy individuals commit suicide?  There are a lot of directions you could go in answering that question, but it doesn't have to do with money.  It's all mental.  The reasons are no different for wealthy and non wealthy suicides.

Probably not. My cousin committed suicide a few weeks ago and his closest family did not see it coming and have no idea WHY he done it.  They/we have ideas but that is it.

Neither do pills.  And these days doctors try to push pills for anything on every one.  A pill doesn't make the problems go away and if you look people who are on antidepressants and anxiety meds have to have more and more to cope with life.  They would be better off if they never started the pills to start with.

      By the way, I do not believe in suicide.
      "Suicide is nothing more than a homicide
      provoked or facilitated by a third party".
      Once you know this truth...you will know
      how to protect yourself and your life.

I think there is more to it then just isolated suicides.... sometimes there is more than meets the eye.  Like why was Kate Spade's husband wearing a Bernard the mouse from Rescuers, face mask two days after she killed herself... bizarre.

& why would anyone kill themselves by strangulation from a door *bleep*.... and then multiples at once.  Just all seems suspect.

I don't pity anyone who takes his/her own life! Especially, those so damn rich it's sicking!What do they have to be depressed about, the fact that so many people are living& dying in poverty, starving to death & these super rich spoiled butt heads feel they have nothing to live for. They're just so bored with themselves killing themselves is just one more thing that money can't buy. Especially, those who claim to be christain,.... the teaching saying you don't have the right to take your own life. Only, the creator they worship has that right. Why  you'll go straight to hell when you do. The sad thing about this sin people commit is that in the end, you can't take it back!

Most people don't even seek out help for their issues, let alone admit them to themselves or reach out to those that are close to them. It's a sad and scary thing, but it's true.  :( Money doesn't buy happiness, and money at your disposal clearly doesn't always mean a clear road to mental health.

That is a sorry attitude. And nobody asked for your pity. As has been stated money does not buy happiness. You have no idea what people are dealing with.

Just because somebody is rich does not mean they are spoiled or a butthead. You sound really jealous because others have something you do not.  There are a lot of people who have money who have worked hard to get where they are.

And the Bible does NOT say you will go to Hell if you kill yourself.  I do not know where anybody who has actually read the Bible gets that from.

People have problems and everybody has their own demons they are dealing with.  It must be nice to have a perfect life where everything is grand.  People end their own life for a lot of reasons.  I know a man who shot himself in the head because he had cancer. He was at the end stages. There was nothing they could do and the pain was more than he could bear. He was tired of being sick and he was tired of hurting.  He wasn't a bad person.  No I don't think he made the right decision but I do not have the right to put him down for doing what he done.  I also do not think he went to Hell for what he done. And no he didn't "claim" to be a Christian. He WAS a Christian.

It is easy to sit and judge others when your perfect life has never had any lows or downs.  And apparently that is what you are living. Otherwise you could show a little sympathy.

How do you know they don't seek out help? Just because it is not public knowledge doesn't mean they did not reach out for help.  I know for a fact there have been times when people ask for help and someone tells them to shake it off.  Well there comes a point when you can't do that any longer.

Depression does not discriminate whether you have money or not. You have to recognize how unhappy you are and seek help to find that happiness whether it requires meedication or not. Very sad.
