depression, especially manic depression is just as easy as just getting help and things will be ok. it doesn't just go away, meds just help make life a little bit more bearable. idk if he was manically depressed, but manic depression is a whole lot harder to deal with than just depression.

plus there's so many awful side affects of meds and the whole process of trial and error. sometimes it can't take a year + trying oit different meds to find one that works for you.

i'm 28 and been dealing with manic depression since i was 14 years old. i've been to hospitals, on meds, seen therapists for months and stabilized to then convincing myself it's ok to stop all that, people with manic depression are notorious for stopping it.

and i'm sure his family and close ones tried helping him but a lot of times family can be naive, as well. my das doesn't even believe in mentall illness, my mom does but she thinks it's just a phase and laying in bed for a day will cure it.

it's a lot of trickier than you're making it out to be
I feel you breh. I still think millionaires have more options to deal with these things but I'll take your word.

eh, i don't think so. if anything the pressure of the label, not wanting to let your band down, the constant supply of drugs and alchol to use to self medicate can make shyt lot worse. plus doctors will and like to take advantage and prescribe all sorts of shyt because they get paid off it. can't imagine the lengths they do that to rich people. they tried that with me, tried throwing anxiety meds at me because i deal with anxiety as well, but i declined because i have a past problem of abusing addictive drugs in my teens. it's very hard to find a psychiatrist who genuinely wants to help you because the pharmaceutical industry banks off people's suffering and pain.

I'm speechless. Linkin Park changed my view on music when I was younger and led me to listen to more music than just rap
Linkin Park is the soundtrack to middle school and high school for me
I used to request their videos on MTV :mjcry:
This is unbelievable. RIP Chester.

Damn, this is some sad news. I loved Linkin Park's first few albums.

I always thought this was one of the most haunting songs I've ever heard. Now it's even moreso after this news. RIP.


Man they had some tracks that are going to be so hard to listen to now.


Always loved this one
