@Ruby_Dawn I checked my FB and saw it there too. I know - you would think someone like him would have it all - at least in the BMX world - I guess he was married and had kids too. And only like 41? Goes to show money and fame does not equal happiness - I guess.

@much2say Yeah it is sad why would he want to leave his kids and wife that way. but depression is a B**** I should know I live with it everyday.... and like you said Money and Fame does not equal happiness,I mean just look at Robin Williams one of the best actors lived in his own Hell for years till he took his life :'(

@Ruby_Dawn Oh - Robin Willams was such a sad shockeroo too. No matter how rich and famous a person gets, they are still "human" with real feelings - and even they can get depressed. One would think they of all people could get the best help possible out there, but I guess what's deep rooted in their heart doesn't heal so quickly - just like any of us. Hugs to all who go through deep depression!!!
