Title: Marie Osmond's Son Commits Suicide.... Post by: Defense54 on February 27, 2010, 06:38:22 pm I guess no family is perfect. What a shame:
Quote Marie Osmond Osmond family members have notified ET that Marie Osmond's son Michael Blosil leapt to his death Friday night in Los Angeles. Contacted by phone this morning, Donny Osmond tells us: "Please pray for my sister and her family." Here are the details: Michael, who was in his late teens and is one of Marie's eight children, died after jumping from his downtown Los Angeles apartment at about 9 p.m. on Friday night. He left a note explaining he intended to commit suicide due to his life-long battle with severe depression that left him, he said, feeling as if he had no friends and could never fit in. We're told that his mother Marie, who helped him fight the condition throughout his life, is devastated by the loss. Donny and Marie's Las Vegas show has been canceled Thats why I stopped at 2 kids. Each time you have another it just increases the odds IMO of having one that is tragically ill. I can't imagine. Sad. Title: Re: Marie Osmond's Son Commits Suicide.... Post by: StL FinFan on February 27, 2010, 07:46:35 pm Depression is a metal illness that needs to be treated like any other illness. So many people do not seek treatment or discontinue their treatment because there is still such a stigma attached to it. No one should have to become a statistic. How very sad that a person who has barely started to live thought that there was no reason to live.

I know Teachers and Layers and a cop or two that are on Meds and deal with it. Some are just worse than others. The feeling that the meds gives them is worse they say. Look at Artie Lange from the Howard Stern show. Made 15 million last year. Stabbed himself 9 times and disboweled himself. This kid jumped off a roof. Can you imagine feeling so bad that , that is the better option? And worse then all of that........seeing your child go through it. Poor Marie. But 8 kids?! No way your gonna tell me that kid got the attention he needed with 7 other siblings. Title: Re: Marie Osmond's Son Commits Suicide.... Post by: StL FinFan on February 28, 2010, 04:13:31 pm I know exactly what it feels like. That's why I stay on my meds. That's why even though it took me several years to find something that would work for me. I did not give up. If not for my family and friends, I would probably be a statistic also.

Good for you!~ Glad you found what works. I can't imagine that kind of pain, I just gotta go pick up the pieces sometimes. You would think that someone like Marie Osmound would have resources to help though no? |
