Actor Robin Williams' ashes were scattered into the San Francisco Bay. Comedian actor died in his home on August 11th, to what they believe was a suicidal hanging. The investigation is still pending but authorities believe he hung himself by a belt from a bedroom door. He was then cremated and the ashes were spread the next day, August 12th. Williams had been seeking help as he had been having depression lately. He had been taking treatment for his depression in July because his wife had been noticing he had been battling depression. Not only was Williams battling depression, he was also in the early stages of Parkinson's disease. Robin was a great actor and was best known to make all of us laugh. He was in Night At The Museum, Happy Feet 1 and 2, Mrs. Doubtfire, RV, and Aladdin. Those are just a few of the main ones that he starred in.
Because he was such a popular, well-loved actor, do you think it was necessary for Robin Williams to commit suicide? Why or why not?

I think this was a personal thing. It is something that he had to decide on his phone and there is nothing that can really stop it if you are famous of not.
I think that just because he was a famous person doesn't change anything about his problems. He had depression, the happiest person on earth can be a homeless man living in an alley, just like the saddest person in the world can be a billionaire with a million fans and a family there for him. I think he felt like he didn't have choice, maybe it was a necessity for him. Thats what he wanted.
I don't think it was necessary, because he could have gotten help. It was what he thought was necessary and we can't change that.
I think that in the situation he was in he made a decision that was his and only his. Even though he was well-loved we should remember him as the hero that mad us smile.
I believe nobody's life is worth losing like this, no matter how bad your life is.
It was his decision. I feel that there isn't a well enough understanding as of why he did it for us to answer a question like this. It was all about what was going on in his head.
I don't really believe that Robin had a choice in this matter. He was so overtaken by the depression and the disease, and it seemed like the only option.
I'm sure it wasn't really necessary but he probably wanted to get rid of the pain he was feeling.
I think it is never really necessary for someone to commit suicide, but we don't know exactly what was going on in Robin Williams life. Sure he was a great actor and was very loved by his many fans, but outside of his career maybe he and his family were struggling, we just don't know. Maybe it wasn't truly necessary for him to kill himself.
