"Sometimes, people will go to the ends of the Earth to not admit they are afflicted with a form of mental illness. They will claim they are or were afflicted with something else to avoid what they perceive as the ultimate public shame...being mentally ill."
"...but what evidently caused the guy's death was plain old fashioned severe and recalcitrant denial regarding having a form of mental illness."
Well said. And even if it is not true or completely true in Williams' case, it's certainly true in the needless deaths of many others.
