Accidental suicide?

More than one person thinks that Robin Williams actually died from autoerotic asphyia. If so, it would be one more in sadly growing list of prominent accidental suicides. He never seemed that depressed. He didn't leave a note. Maybe he was seeking a private thrill, and things went terribly wrong.

I'm no expert on autoerotic asphyxiation, but as a person who has seen the flames and the ledge, as a Mr. Wallace put it--just because you are depressed doesn't necessarily mean you seem depressed to other people.

The number of times I heard, "I didn't know!" or "I would have helped!" or some variant thereof? Well, let's just say there were more of them than the scabs that healed over into scars.
