Robin Williams was first diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, but the symptoms he’d shown a year prior to his suicide was different from that of Parkinson’s, and he was suspected of drug abuse and alcoholism, later, a neuropathologist diagnosed his symptoms as “Lewy body dementia”, due to the saturation of the proteins in his brain which accumulated abnormally, it’d affected his behaviors, moods, and ability to think, which caused him to be in and out of a daze a lot later on as his illness progressed.
In the biography, it’d disclosed how Williams would often cry uncontrollably, and become slow to act, and had forgotten his lines a lot, it’d caused a huge impact on his acting career, the makeup artist, Cheri Minns disclosed when she was interviewed, that “After Robin’s done with his days, he’d crying into my arms, it’s truly very awful, too scary”, later, Cheri had suggested that Robin go back to the standup comedian routines, to help himself out of depression, but Robin replied, “I’d forgotten how to be funny”, with his health deteriorating away, he’d committed suicide in 2014, ended his sixty-three years of life, it’d saddened everybody who loved him worldwide.
And so, this is the sad tale of how one of the world’s most well-known comedian kept his sorrows for himself, and, I’m sure, that unless you’re close to him, you wouldn’t know that he was troubled by the complex symptoms of his dementia, but he was very strong, in that he’d masked up his illness so well, that nobody ever knew, unless you’re someone who was close to him.
