[Paxman II]

According to the inquest reports he had an argument with his wife and had 'ups and downs'.
Hey don't we all! Also the 'boys were too important'
Well why did you take your life you selfish person and why are we feeling bad for this guy?

The following is a quote from the Daily Mail article;

"In a narrative verdict, he gave the cause of death as hanging but said 'the evidence does not sufficiently determine whether this was intentional or accidental'."

How do you accidentally hang yourself ?

He obviously wasn't getting any support though was he. Poor bloke and his poor family.

Absolute bullshit how people think they can have such an opinion over someone who has obviously felt they couldn't go on. Nobody, absolutely nobody know's what he was going through, why he felt the way he did. If you don't understand something, don't have an opinion on it.

Ever met a person with a "real" depression ?
Knew two, both of them killed themselves.
Remember Robert Enke.

Ask David Carridine or Michael Hutchence.

...but he was capable of running the Wales international side and only the day before was in the studio'd chatting happily with the likes of Gary McCallister?
I do have sympathies with people suffering from depression but one of the first things that happen is they lose ability to do their jobs and this was not the case.
he left his two boys with a life long horrible legacy and while he was capable of talking to football players he was certainly capable of picking up the phone and asking for help?
