    It’s quite a shame he has his health, prestige and wealth and wants to blow it all away.

    I being really sick am not looking at being wealthy or famous. I just want to be well again. Some people do not realize what they have got and he has it all.

    I dont understand what would actually push him to try and do that to himself. I love all his movies.

    Whomever made the comment about wealth ect and he has it all! What world are you living in?? You think money and fame can buy you happiness?? These people are human beings with true human emotions and problems such as ours, if not worse. They have no privacy. And just for the record…Mental health issues…are an illness too! Just because you can’t see them, doesn’t mean they don’t exist! Wake up!
