Yesterday i woke up with the news of Robin Williams' suicide... He was one of those kinds of people whom i thought might living a happy life... one who is rich and make people laugh... comedian, a successful actor... what else he needs in his life!!! But he was in serious state of depression and that one moment of lose of control, it was all over...
News like that make me think being a rich guy he could have many things to hang on to, than taking his life... Then why did he do something like that?
The truth is we cannot judge the life of others unless we are in their shoes... Everyone has his or her own bundle of pain and agony which eats the happiness and can push you at times to deep well of depression...
I have been in situations like that and now it is scary even to think if i had done something wild... I thank god that my mind was strong enough for me to get out of the situations... it could have gone much worse for me... But ended up ok...
Many judge people with depression... especially in India where an average youngster has to live a life fulfilling the expectations of 100 other people in his life... The pressure to make it to the top in this competitive world is not easy these days... One failure can put you down in such a way that you wont be able to get up back to your feet...
The society, especially the family, instead of judging someone on his her her failure has to understand the pressure one is going through and should get him or her the required help... Encourage to fight again... get to counselling...
Anyone can fall someday... it wont be a smooth walk for anyone in life... So, it is important to hold on to the positives in life... In times of woes, those will strengthen our minds to get up...
