If it's going to be musicians, why can't it be people like Beiber, Katy Perry, Ariana Grande?
I dont understand that part either, to be honest. The state of mental healthcare in this country is deplorable, though. Could definitely use some stepping up.
But the man had access to ANY kind of therapy he could desire, I dont get it.

Going out on a limb, I'll say with certainty a refund will be given.
Point a gun at my head and I can't name a song from this band.
You been living under a rock?
RIP, Chester.
So, before FM.I march to the beat of my own drum. What I mean by that is when this band started hitting the radio waves and the kids were falling in love and oh my god you have to listen to this band yada yada yada, I didn't.
I would much rather hear stories about parents who spend their entire lives clean, working, and raise their kids into being normal productive members of society.
As a person who suffers from bouts of depression, all I have to say is, what an asshole! As bad as things are and can ever be, putting a gun to your head, or taking an intentional overdose, etc, etc is just stupid and selfish. It must really be a hard life to have all of that money. Don't even talk about the stress of touring and making more music. If that was making him unhappy, he had the ability to walk a way at any time. Sorry if this seems insensitive, but I've been in the low and still hit that bottom from time to time, but making those around me that love me suffer my life ending is nothing that I would ever consider.
You left out the part about Chester being sexually abused as a young child and attempting suicide as a teen? So that shitty burden has no effect?
That's a horrible thing to have happen to someone. I couldn't imagine going through that, and i'm sure that had an impact on why he did what he did. But it's not an excuse. He seemed to cope through it long enough to have 6 kids, and turn into a talented musician that was loved by thousands of people. All to just piss it away and leave your family stranded without a father. Selfish.... Pure and simple.

How the hell did people get by a hundred years ago without all these doctors and pharmaceutical companies labeling people as having "depression" and feeding them medication like it was candy?....
