Come to find out, Lee was bipolar as well, (and had
been taking his meds according to Toxicology reports), and as unsettling as it
was, it made things more understandable. While I could never imagine actively
offing my own on switch via depression, mania, its counterpart, can leave
someone so out of their rabbit-ass mind, that anything is unfortunately
possible.
The goal of this blog is to share my experiences and any insight gained from them to help people. More specifically, whether others are directly experiencing, affected by, or simply interested in the themes as suggested, but not necessarily bound by its title, it is my hope that it provides a transparent platform from which, information, education, and understanding are derived.

RIP to my Black and Bipolar Brother
Lee Thompson Young, aka Jett Jackson of The Disney
Channel Fame, aka fellow Trojan, aka the former roommate of my good friend
Reggie, committed suicide about a month and a half ago. I was speaking with
Terrie about why someone who seemingly had it all (a career – he was a regular
on TNT’s Rizzoli and Isles, an education, good looks) would end it, and we came
to the familiar conclusion that you never know exactly what someone may be
going through from the outside.
