Hey its Ken. I know a lot of people are dealing with the passing of Robin Williams in different ways. I have felt sad since hearing about it last night, and unfortunately having to share this sadness with you as part of my job. I never knew the man, except for his movies and comedy. But I do know when you are a character like him, its got to be hard to switch off. All that creativity, and characters running through your mind can drive you crazy. What I wanted to remind you of and to say to the people who tell us to suck it up and move on, its sometimes not that easy. Depression is a very real thing. I know. I have dealt with my own battles in my life, and Im sure you have too. Death, Divorce, betrayal, the loss of a close friend to suicide. They are all struggles we all deal with on this journey called Life. The important thing to remember: If you are dealing with darkness in your life, YOU ARE NOT ALONE AND YOU ARE PROBABLY NOT IMAGINING IT! Dont reach for a bottle, a line of coke, or a pill and try to to go it alone. Talk to friends or family. If that doesnt help, see your doctor and get them to refer you to a counselor, someone you can tell your story to without bias or judgement, with the safety of confidentiality. Remember, We only have one life, and its too damn short to spend it unhappy and in the darkness. Reach out and Get help. YOU ARE WORTH IT! Now go watch something funny and laugh. Peace, my friends.
