I just got something locked where I suggested someone might have murdered Robin Williams due to his political beliefs, as he went on tour dissing Bush, they have another war coming up and Jeb planning to run so they wanted him out of the way.

Can someone point me to where he got help for depression, not alcohol treatment?

From everything I read he said he was an alcoholic, alcohol was his problem. He was self medicating his anxiety.

He did not ever say he was depressed or suicidal.
