What do you mean? When you're very depressed, sucide is often percieved as the only way out. [/QUOTE]True.
It's also true that suicide is selfish.
Mr. Hunter was a 67 year old long-time alcoholic and drug abuser so there is no doubt depression played a role. I wouldn't put the effect of drama away so fast though. At 67 he was well wise enough to know there are plenty of resources available for rehabilitation and counseling (unlike younger victims of depression that leads to suicide). How many people would remember him if he died quietly in a hospital bed hooked up to dialysis while waiting on a list for a new used liver and set of kidneys?
