O Captain, My Captain

The news just broke my heart. His characters were always so positive and inspiring, his performances really left mark on on me. To think that such a great guy would have suffered that kind of depression... :'(
Rest in peace
Bipolar is actually pretty common amongst performers, I have it too and when you're manic it's easy to be the centre of attention. It's the swing back into depression that's so tough to deal with, it comes out of nowhere with no explanation and it can seem like you'll never be up again.
That swing back is the worst thing...you do not feel that anyone can help, you put on a mask and perform a joyful extatic person just to come back home, look in the mirror and hate every bit of what you see, hate the person you've become....new morning comes, begins with a mask, and a crawl through reality...
Seems that this "Bipolarity" is common, but with people who love to help, who love to bring a smile, a rest of mind....but when you are such person you take too much onto yourself...and when there is a problem that you have people still reach to you, cause you always helped, you are always bringing a smile...not many people listen to the scream inside you...the problems that you have with the world...
Ok 'nough of talking. Let the great man speak again in your houses with his stand ups that you know and love. They carry not only laughter but they teach many lessons if you are careful enough to listen.
