Robin Williams

This one hit me hard. I’m 39 and a huge movie and stand up comedy nerd, also dealing with lifelong depression, and growing up watching Robin always put me in a better place. Felt like losing a family member. I can’t quite bring myself to watch much of his stuff nowadays. It almost feels like watching old home videos to me. The one exception is World’s Greatest Dad. I lost my father to depression, he took his life a few years ago and I can’t help feeling like I’m going to end up the same sometimes. That movie, I just connect to on such a deep level, it somehow makes me happy to watch.
