This former B+ list mostly television actress from a very hit long running cable show that is now over is really in a bad place right now. She has been talking a lot about the 27 club.
Not always, but most of the time when someone yells suicide, it's either a cry for help or a cry for attention. The people who actually go through with it never open their mouths. We have examples of that all this year. The most prominent person being Robin Williams. His suicide stunned even his best friends.
It's irresponsible to EVER dismiss suicidal talk as just a cry for attention. One has to take it seriously. You can't stereotype people and dismiss what they say when it's something this serious. Sure, many don't share their depressed feelings and are good at hiding them, but often there ARE little or big hints being given. And talking about it is a big hint. And, just because some do not go through with it, does not mean they have not seriously considered it at points in their lives. Folks reading this: if a loved one gives out any kind of hint, please take it very seriously.
P.S. Regarding Robin Williams, I know the family said they had no idea. But I would bet thousands of dollars that, as time went on, they've realized there were indicators. I say that not to blame them in any way. If they weren't expecting or looking for it, they would not see it. No fault. But in hindsight, I'm sure they've realized now that there were cracks in his facade. A terrible loss, by the way.
Robin's wife came out and said he had Parkinsons and Lewy Body Dementia which was the reason for his suicide. He had been treated in the past for depression.
Ah, I didn't follow any of the news stories. Knowing and wanting to help doesn't always mean you can prevent a suicide. I can empathize with his (assumed) state of mind. When I go, I'd like it to be on my own terms, not become a burden on my loved ones, etc.
Christina Hendricks?
ReplyDeleteJJ could be it too
ReplyDeleteDon't they have to be 27 years old?
ReplyDeleteashley benson

ReplyDeleteWake up @sandybrook, the actress is either 26 or 27 and depressed.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even think of Pretty Little Liars because it's still on. I know Entern fleulently too and I read it as the show is off.?
ReplyDeleteI thought the 27 Club was only for musicians.

ReplyDeleteAshley Benson is my best guess too. I actually really like her, so I hope that she snaps out of it!
