While his publicist wouldn’t confirm that his death was a suicide, a rep did issue this statement. “Robin Williams passed away this morning. He has been battling severe depression of late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time.”
Story here.

I always feel like celebrity boards need a small list of what their accomplishments were, but if you don't know Robin Williams, then I don't know how you ended up on the Internet. But all the same, you probably saw him in: Mrs. Doubtfire, Jumanji, Night at the Museum, Hook, and Good Will Hunting, and heard his voice in Aladdin, Ferngully, Happy Feet, and Robots.

So weird to hear about his death. :c I saw him in so many things as a kid, it's just strange that he's not here anymore.

I just thought to look on Mara Wilson's twitter (the youngest daughter from Mrs. Doubtfire), and she's tweeted:

It must be so hard for those who got to actually work with him and know him.

His death is especially sad to me knowing he had been battling severe depression. I can relate to that, and know how painful and crippling depression can be. Bless his heart.

So far beyond sad. Makes my heart ache. He made me laugh over and over and over. Such a funny and talented man. RIP Mork.

I hope that there will be a tribute item for a man who gave so much creatively.

RIP Mom, I love & miss you more than you know. Tell Dede hi.

I was just chatting with a friend about celebrity depression recently =c This sort of thing is truly heartbreaking, and I can't imagine battling depression along with the stress of being famous. It's really unfortunate that there's nothing to be done.

Hopefully the pain and darkness has stopped.

Please ping me to get my attention, I don't check the forums too often.
So sorry!

It doesn't feel real. I always think it would be natural causes/old age with some celebrities when they pass. It doesn't feel right when they don't:(

I'm so sad. I grew up with him on Mrs. Doubtfire and all his other movies... And it always makes me feel freaked out when it might have been intentional.

This was the first thing I heard when I got back home from work. I was really hoping that it was just a silly hoax, but found out that it is legit. What upsetting news :/ RIP, man. You were awesome.

I am so sad about this. Robin Williams wasn't just an actor, he was a legend. It baffles me that a man who brings so much happiness to millions of people, could have been having such a deep depression that he would commit suicide.

I didn't want to believe this either. I can't pick a favourite role because there were so many that I enjoyed.

Please people, if you are feeling sad or depressed, get help. Tell a friend, family, reach out to a stranger even.
