Q. What do you call the guy who graduates at the bottom of his med school class?
A. Doctor. Also usually Psychiatrist.
Most famous , for me , for his role in ‘ Revenge of the Nerds’. Someone taking their own life makes it hard for the lawsuit lottery to win on this one. Not that they won’t try . Probably already shopped around and found a sympathetic judge.
It is not too much to say that there is an evident generational curse on the Carradine family.
A sad, sad, ending for anyone. Severe depression is no joke. May God have mercy on his soul and grant him eternal rest and peace.
David was found dead at age 72 in a Bangkok hotel room.
His death was reported as accidental auto erotic asphyxiation.
He had the choice of when to attempt to commit suicide. If he checked himself in without being under the control of his associates/family at the time, he could easily have committed suicide before check-in. He chose not to. Can we blame the hospital for his decision to wait until after he was admitted?
First David Carradine gets roped into a fiasco in Thailand and now this.
Seems like he was worth about 300k.
Retiring in LA with 300k to your name.
He had way more problems than just mental health.
He tried to stop himself from killing himself but failed.
The common treatment for psychiatric patients appears to be putting them on the streets... That’s what they’re doing where I live. You walk out your door and they’re all out there ‘looning out’ out in public. The old standard of keeping them housed ended decades ago.
One of the hospitals I worked at was a psych hospital. I had zero to do with patients. But I did spend a lot of time with Docs and nurses. I learned about how nothing in the place could jut out from the wall more than an inch or less.
I also learned that if someone was really determined to kill themselves, they would find a way.
It was the kind of “adult education” that never comes in handy at parties.
At least he died doing something he loved ...
Oh, wait ... that was his brother ...
